General Discussion

county in Oregon, every year. THat's 36 counties, and some of them are really big. Meaning a lot of travel to get there. I always go to any of them that are within driving distance of me because I always feel so much better after I go. He is always upbeat and optimistic, although realistic about what is happening. I always leave feeling so grateful that we have good representative here in Oregon. I know that is small consolation for those of you who don't, but he and Merkley are both working for America, not just Oregon.

I know Wyden has been all over voting machine issues and cyber security issues with election infrastructure for years. He worked closely with Pelosi on the bill the House passed and is sponsoring it in the Senate. Unlikely to pass, I know, with Moscow Mitch at the helm. But he has his fingers on the pulse of all that and is very actively involved.

One of his staffers once told me not to lose hope because there are a lot of really good people working behind the scenes on things we don't even know about. I often think back to that.
