Housing Slump Dominates Oregon House Race in 4th District
In Oregon's 4th District, where one tenth of the nation’s uncut softwood sits, housing slump, mill closures, and layoffs drive the race between Republican John Dellenback and Democrat James Weaver. Both candidates cite economy, high interest rates, and inflation as key issues, with Weaver blaming Nixon policies and Dellenback defending his record. Unemployment in Grants Pass has spiked to 16 percent, while the region’s timber industry and gun laws also color voter concerns in Eugene and Veneta.
