The race has turned into something of a referendum on the effectiveness of candidates' messaging on abortion post-Roe v. Wade
Kotek is making her support for abortion rights a major theme of her messaging, while Drazan has largely tried to avoid talking about her opposition to abortion in favor of issues like crime, homelessness, and the economy. As the candidates head into the final weeks of the campaign, the contest may prove a test for how much backlash to the fall ofis galvanizing Democrats, or whether Republicans can regain power by focusing on other issues that may animate voters even more.
Kotek, who served as state House speaker from 2013 until early this year, emphasizes her role in crafting Oregon’s current abortion policies. Abortion is legal throughout pregnancy in the state, and Kotek wants to help people from all corners of Oregon—as well as neighboring states like Idaho that have now banned abortion—access the procedure. “Oregonians today are impacted by what thedecision brought forth,” Kotek tells TIME.
