OR-Gov: Major LGBT Group, Victory Fund, Endorses Kate Brown (D) For Governor

DailyKos:

Received this e-mail today from the LGBT group, Victory Fund:

Friend--
We've got some exciting news to share: This week we endorsed Kate Brown in her special election bid for Governor of Oregon. 

Kate made history in 2015 when she became the first openly bi governor in America – and the only openly LGBT governor anywhere in the country – following the resignation of her predecessor. Now, she's running in a special election to serve out the rest of the term.

Kate is one of a tiny handful of statewide LGBT officials, and it's critical that we keep her in office. Will you chip in with a contribution to the Victory Fund to help propel Kate and other LGBT leaders to victory?

Under her brief tenure, Oregon has become a model state for increased democratic participation and LGBT rights. Kate is one of the first governors in America to sign a ban on youth "conversion therapy" into law, and her administration has prioritized the enforcement of the state's LGBT nondiscrimination laws. 

Kate Brown is the governor Oregon needs. 

Will you chip in $100, $50, or even $10 to help us elect LGBT leaders like Kate across the country?

Onward, 
Team Victory
