Mayor of Eugene - KITTY PIERCY
Jim Torrey, a pro-Bush, pro-war, anti-abortion, failed Republican
candidate for the state Senate, is spending a record half-million dollars
in developer and gravel pit money to unseat Democrat Mayor Kitty Piercy.
Torrey, a former highway billboard salesman, would pay back his big
donors with urban sprawl and environmental destruction. Torrey refuses
to say how he would pay for his big spending plans for cops and potholes.
The anti-oversight police union is one of his biggest campaign contributors.
While Torrey promises divisive, destructive partisanship, Piercy has
sought collaboration and compromise in her effort to be a mayor for
all Eugene. Piercy has worked hard to clean up the pits downtown, fix
city streets and establish police accountability. Piercy's Sustainable
Business Initiative is already establishing Eugene as an attractive
place for tomorrow's high paying green jobs. Vote for a mayor for all
Eugene, not for a Republican for all Eugene's developers.
