Political campaign section
I removed the following information: Despite winning 9 of the 11 competitive newspaper endorsements and receiving more votes in Multnomah County than any Republican in history,

The reference cited here no longer exists. I am also skeptical that Alley really did get the more Multnomah County votes than any Republican in history. What about Jack Roberts,Gordon Smith, Vic Atiyeh, and Tom McCall? All were Republicans and all were eleted into state office with the help of Multnomah County. Also, John Lim was a state Senator and State Representative, representing a portion of Multnomah County. Every vote he received durring his career in the State House and Senate was from a Multomah County voter. So by percentage, he has done better than Alley in Multnomah County. Please explain why this information should exist before reposting it.Eaglecap Backpack (talk) 16:25, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It does sound fishy, but maybe because the population of the county has increased since those other guys were in office, he got more? I dunno. It doesn't greatly enhance the article anyway, so I don't think it will be missed. --Esprqii (talk) 17:02, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, I just did a little research and found the statement to be false. Lucky for me, the first person I tried won more votes than Alley. In 1984 Ronald Reagan received 119,932 votes from Multnomah County. Allen Alley received 103,847 votes in 2008. See for yourself: Reagan in 1984 and Alley in 2008.

 * Nice. By the way, I tracked down the reference here. That aeenet.org site redirects there now. --Esprqii (talk) 18:04, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It's interesting that the article is incorrect. They should have done more homework before making claims. However, I dug through more voting records and while I couldn't find records for elections before 1984, I never found a state candidate that earned a higher number of votes in Multnomah County than Alley. I know Tom McCall and Vic Atiyeh were very popular and may have earned a higher voter count in Multnomah County, I couldn't find their records so I can't say for sure. Alley may be able to claim that he had the highest vote count in Multnomah County out of any Republican state politician in history. But in order to verify that claim one would have to look at every Republican to ever run for state wide office, including those that won by a landslide earlier in Oregon's history. I guess what I am saying is, if this clam is to be posted, there had better be a darn good source. Eaglecap Backpack (talk) 19:01, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
