Summary
Portland’s City Council races are heating up as six seats up for grabs could tip the balance between progressives and moderates. Early fundraising reveals surprising momentum: incumbent Olivia Clark leads in District Four with strong matching funds, while challenger Eli Arnold is surging. In District Three, Tiffany Koyama Lane dominates with small-donor support, all under the city’s controversial Small Donor Elections Program, now capped at $300K per candidate. With deadlines looming, the race is just beginning—but the money’s already speaking volumes. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
