Elections
2016
The city of Portland, Oregon, held elections for mayor and two of its four city commission seats on May 17, 2016. Despite a large number of candidates in all three races, the mayoral and City Commission Position No. 1 races were both determined in the primary with Oregon Treasurer Ted Wheeler (D) and incumbent Commissioner Amanda Fritz winning more than half the votes in their respective races.
The City Commission Position No. 4 race, however, required a runoff election on November 8, 2016. Incumbent Steve Novick was the top vote recipient in the primary, but did not secure a majority of the votes cast. He was defeated by Chloe Eudaly in the general election.
The May election was called a primary, but it was functionally a general election. A runoff election—called in this case a general election—was only held on November 8, 2016, for races where no single candidate received a majority (50 percent plus one) of the votes cast on the May ballot.[2]

Campaign themes

Schor provided the following statement for the Multnomah County primary election voters' pamphlet:
“ | I’m running for mayor because we face problems that can’t be solved by the establishment politicians who helped create them. I represent the laborers, artists, dreamers, and social justice warriors who embody the spirit of Portland and whose voices are too faint to be heard under the roar of the rich and powerful. Don’t let money choose your mayor. My campaign takes no corporate or PAC money. Housing and Homelessness
