Hacking into Oregon's election financing

Someone was reading my mind - easy access for election information in Oregon.  Hack Oregon is a new site that is growing, but until the site tells us who were the big spenders and which groups gave money to local candidates and measures, this is just scratching the surface.  We need clarity about what influences and agendas are driving campaigns.  Perhaps this will be something else this site will tackle in the future. Read the FAQs for more election and site information.  

Did you know the statewide average for grassroots funding is 13%?

Go to Hack Oregon to view their project, Behind the Curtain.
