Bob Tiernan, a former state legislator and chairman of the Republican Party and business consultant, announced Monday he’s running for Oregon’s governor.
The 66-year-old Tiernan said in part, “We want safe communities, and parks for children to play in without heaps of trash, hazardous waste, or homeless campers in our streets.”
Tiernan said to demonstrate he’s serious about his campaign, he’s depositing more than $1 million in contributions to kick things off.
He joins a loaded field of gubernatorial candidates on both the Republican and Democrat side.
