(Salem, OR) -- Oregon's Republican candidate for governor is trying to rally some support from the LGBTQ community. It's a daring stance for Bend's Knute Buehler, as most in the GOP are opposed to gay rights, and incumbent Governor Kate Brown is openly bisexual. "The Oregonian" reports that Buehler was courting support at Portland's Pride Parade over the weekend. Both Buehler and Brown claim to be longtime supporters of the gay community.
