(Portland, OR)  --  Governor Kate Brown is condemning President Trump for declining to commit to a peaceful transfer of power should he lose the election in November.  Brown joined eleven other Democratic governors yesterday in releasing a joint statement saying throwing out ballots and resisting a peaceful transfer of power is an "assault on American democracy."  The statement went on to promise to count all votes cast in the upcoming election. Washington Governor Jay Inslee, California Governor Gavin Newsom and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker are among the governors who signed the statement.
