Charles Lewis in Portland, Oregon

Partial List of Endorsements:

The Portland Tribune: "At a time when all candidates seem to agree that the local economy is the largest emerging issue, Lewis’ business acumen will be invaluable on the council. Voters should elect him to Position 1."

Stand for Children: "Charles Lewis understands the complexity of keeping Portland affordable and the critical balance between business, family friendly neighborhoods and vibrant schools."

Jack Bogdanski - Professor, Lewis and Clark Law School; Author, Bojack.org: "Of the several candidates vying for the position, Lewis has the best combination of smarts, vision, experience, common sense, and decency. A star at Harvard, he's run his own business, he's been a union construction worker, he built water systems in Africa with the Peace Corps, and he's founded an important nonprofit organization that exposes children to music. He's got a healthy skepticism about the current direction of the city, but he also knows what's going well and needs to be sustained."

David Bragdon - President of Metro

Sal Kadri - Commissioner, Portland Development Commission

Cynthia Guyer - PPS Parent and Founding Executive Director, Portland Public Schools Foundation: "Charles is a creative, can-do leader who is looking out for Portland's children and working families."
