In the past I had voted for him, but this time I left my ballot blank for both the primary and GE. There was no question he was going to be reelected by a large margin without even breaking a sweat. I live overseas and my voter registration is in Tillimook, which doesn't give me much choice in the matter.

I too would like to see someone more progressive in that seat, but I think we are stuck with him for a long while.
