Our Candidates for
Oregon State Senate District 3

Protecting Our Progress: Securing the Future of Senate District 3 in 2026

​

For years, our district has been represented by Jeff Golden, a leader known for his integrity and dedication to the Rogue Valley. As he prepares to step down, we face a critical turning point. We cannot afford to lose this seat or the progress we’ve made on housing, climate resilience, and healthcare access. 

 

Your Voice Matters: Vote in the May 19th Primary!

 

The work of protecting this seat and ensuring our values are represented in Salem starts with your vote in the Democratic Primary Election on May 19th. We are proud to feature a slate of Democratic candidates who are ready to lead with the same commitment to transparency and public service that our district expects and deserves.
