In a sign that the Secretary of State Election might be very close, a variety of left-leaning donors have dumped hundreds of thousands of dollars into the Shemia Fagan campaign for Secretary of State.

At this point in the campaign, state law requires reporting of contributions no later than seven days after being received. Below is a report of major donors to Fagan's campaign, during the first 9 days of October. It represents a broad cross-section of left leaning interests, labor unions, and individuals.

Some analysts point out that Oregon voters don't like a highly partisan race, especially for the office of Secretary of State -- a person in the position of being the referee on Oregon's elections. They have suggested that this large last-minute surge of cash is the result of an election that is turning out much like the Brad Avakian/Dennis Richardson Race four years ago, when the respected Richardson defeated the partisan Avakian.

The election is a mere 17 days from now.
