I believe we need better representation from a broader board. Phil Chang is doing a great job and being in the minority is unfair and unbalanced.

More Government Is The problem and why Oregon now Northern California. Oregon has turned into a Socialist Communist State.

Gabe West

Less government control the better

💛🖤 RAG 💛🖤

There will be more if we get more liberals on the board!!

Naomi Sherpa

The Deschutes county has grown and we need to more representation.

Stang1960

Less Government not more is better for the individual.

Samuel Facey

The county is growing in population, and as the population grows the problems grow. We had our first mass shooting 2022, a new city of mountain view maybe coming our way, and countless natural disasters, covid-19 and many more! It's time to grow.

Ed Neumann

Absolutely! The Commission is invisible to most county residents but plays an important role for 200k residents.

Make Oregon California with bigger government more taxes and less freedom is your answer... Did you move from California by chance?

The only reason Chang wants it is to get more liberals on the board and change the majority!! We have a 100 % LIBERAL ACTIVIST city council we don't need a liberal majority board of commissioners or we'll be DOOMED!! The ONLY thing that saves us from madness in this county is a conservative board!!

Rick Allen

We dont need anymore Phil Changs!

Stang1960

3 is enough any more is a waist of money, if i think about it it probably should only be ONE, less government is better for the people. Chang wants more so he can have more socialist liberals on the board. He also wants nonpartisan elections so they can lie about who they are to be elected.

Stang1960

Anyone who believes that bigger government is the answer probably came from California or ran away from the Peoples Socialist Republic of Portland. The transplants from west of the cascades and California are destroying Central Oregon.

Charlie Kirk was a man of faith and gave his very life for the values I stand for. He was a voice heard around the world

Pat Nelson Wilson

He doesn’t deserve it. He is a nobody and spewed hateful rhetoric.

Janice Adair

He was a racist, white supremacist, and very divisive figure. The political violence that ended his lift is a terrible thing but it’s something he helped foment. This is the most ridiculous idea I can imagine.

Lisa Alexander

He was a racist person who spread hate.

Jane CommunityMember

I never heard of this guy before he was murdered, but it looks like he had a track record of saying awful things, and fomented the conditions in society that led to his demise. That's very tragic, but there are other people more deserving of a day.

Byron Barclay

Because his MO is actually deceptive & decisive!

Martie King

He is not a hero.

Linda Spaet

Though this is a tragic incident and a terrible time of violence in our country, Mr. Kirk was not an elected official. We should honor his family and respect them in many ways and I certainly have sympathy for his family. But this does not warrant aday in Oregon devoted to his name or his politics.

Robert Spaet

A highly partisan figure in American politics should never be given a day of observance for any reason. It should be acknowledge that violence is not acceptable in any form for any reason, but it should not be honored and given Publicity because of it.

Alex GERRITY

He was not a government figure, and while I don’t condone the violence that took his life, he called on his supporters to bail out others that committed violence against elected government officials.

Laurie Maholland

Mr. Kirk was too controversial and not a hero.

celeste carico

This guy was homophobic, racist, and anti women’s rights. While I think his murder is wrong, he is not a hero. He encouraged hatred towards people he didn’t agree with their lifestyles in his “teachings”. I don’t think Jesus would support him…he preached love for everyone!

Gerald Wonnacott

We didn't create a Melissa Hortmann day and she was a good person. Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was about racism, sexism, mysoginism, and divisiveness. He was not a good person and represented everything that was NOT Christian.

Jim Terry

Need I really explain

Priscilla Smith

Absolutely not!

Shannon Gamble

Sure! Let's give kudos to the shooter! NOT! What about the 5 officers who just got shot in Pennsylvania? Should we have a day for that too?? Absolutely NOT necessary.
