The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Needs to Play Fair in Oregon's Primary

Source: Novick for Senate Website Sources Oregon's Bend Bulletin-original source not available to public

The Bend Bulletin in Oregon reported that:

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee spent about $73,000 for an advance team from Arkansas, The Markham Group, to promote Merkley's campaign kickoff tour. It paid about $20,000 to a Washington, D.C., firm for 'research.'

Steve Novick, Democrat running for U.S. Senate in Oregon is steamed about the DSCC's steering in the primary and made a statement about it in his blog today:

I'm pretty steamed about that news. I'm not pleased to hear that a few people in Washington, D.C. are trying to dictate who we send against Gordon Smith in November. I think a lot of Oregon Democrats will share my indignation and more generally I bet there are a lot of grassroots Democrats across America who resent being told who they should support in their respective Senate races.
