Obama v. Clinton May be Close In Oregon

Barack Obama made four campaign stops in Oregon this week, with a reported 13,000 in Portland’s Memorial Colsium where Gov. Bill Richardson endorsed him, a well-attended forum in Salem, and large turn-outs at Mac Court and Medford. In January polling by Riley Research, Clinton led Obama 36% to 28% among registered Dems. Even with the crowds, the Register Guard reports that the Oregon Democratic primary race may be close.
