2010 US SENATE RACE: OREGON


INCUMBENT: Ron Wyden, Democrat
  • First Elected in 1996
  • Defeated Al King in 2004 (62% - 34%)
  • DOB - 05/03/1949
POTENTIAL CHALLENGERS (names being tossed around): Gordon Smith

2008 PRESIDENTIAL STATE RESULTS: Obama 57% McCain 40%

Gordon Smith found a job recently at a Washington D.C. law firm. It's a good thing for him because back in November, Jeff Merkley and the people of Oregon fired him from the U.S. Senate. A lot of Republicans would like to see Smith run again, although it's unlikely unless the political climate for Republicans changes for the better.
