Official: Sam Adams For Portland's Mayor

Sam Adams Portland MayorFrom OregonLive.com:

Adams, 44, served as chief aide to Mayor Vera Katz and was elected to the City Council in 2004. As accomplishments, he cited his work to lower business taxes and deal with dangerous intersections.

His candidacy was hardly a surprise. It has been expected ever since Mayor Tom Potter announced last month that he wouldn't seek re-election. Although a handful of unknown candidates have filed to run for mayor, no well-known figures have emerged to challenge Adams.

If elected, Adams would be the only openly gay mayor of a top-40 U.S. city, a fact he downplayed today.

"It might be historic, but I"m not running to be Portland's first gay mayor," he said.


Always loved Sam and he'll have my vote. Go Sam!
