(Salem, OR) -- Another candidate has joined Oregon's race for the Governor's office. Scio State Representative Ed Diehl is running for the Republican Primary. He says, the state government has lost sight of who it works for. Diehl co-led the effort to send transportation tax and fee increases to voters after the package passed in the legislature. Another Republican candidate who announced this week is David Medina, who was pardoned by President Trump for his role in the January sixth attack on the U-S Capitol. He says he's "confronting anti-American extremism head-on."
