From the Curry County Reporter:
People on the South Coast might not be too familiar with State Senator Rick Metsger, but they might recall that he’s the guy who in January decided to ask the state’s Attorney General Hardy Myers to sue the federal government for failing to “meet its historic responsibility” to rural communities. So far Myers hasn’t done anything.
Now Metsger’s hatched another plan: a run for Secretary of State.
Metsger said that the state’s second highest office is the right position to help him fight for rural Oregonians, a task he said he’s been doing since he first got elected several years ago. His senate district encompasses the Mt. Hood area all the way to the Wasco County line.
