4 x 4: Robinson/DeFazio For Congress Again

campaigns/JPArt

The_Jefferson_Exchange_10_06_2016_Hr1B.mp3
Art Robinson talks about why he wants to be in Congress.

By now, somebody in Oregon Congressional District Four must be thinking "you again?"  And it could be one of the two major-party candidates. 

Democratic incumbent Peter DeFazio is facing Republican challenger Art Robinson for the fourth straight election. 

It's hard to run against an incumbent for Congress; maybe harder in a district with Eugene and Corvallis on one end and Cave Junction and Brookings on the other.  We divide up the hour with visits with each of the candidates, making the case for two years (or two MORE) in Washington.
