Public Meeting for the City Council, used an anecdotal story to break up the monotony. Small personal quips can either grab back the audience attention, or lose them, so it's important to read the room and pick a simple, relatable topic, or relatable delivery.

So, what do these numbers mean, in regard for bets placed?

Submission Statement: Oregon is the #1 Capital of Human Trafficking in the USA

Submission Statement: Oregon sits as a relatively large and unpopulated state in-between the California Liberal Hellhole of I-5 and with Seattle/Vancouver/Portland just north, there is a lack of accountability. Some people even say the Democrats are complicit in the trafficking networks. Please watch other videos on the channel to learn more. In-depth compilation will be uploaded soon!

Wish I could also flair this as, "MISLEADING" since Lookout Eugene-Springfield is showing some bias in their reporting. I was disappointed to see they focused heavily on a candidate considering Dan Bahlen did not even respond to them. Their coverage seemed to belittle and disrespectfully comment on his health issues. It seems like poor journalistic integrity to highlight the (alleged) drug and mental health issues of a fringe candidate, just for a little bit of clicks and ad revenue.

Candidate Bahlen is a Native American, the coverage from "LookOut" seems to have some racist and classist, and able-ist undertones.... Candidate Bahlen has past difficulties that deserve to be empathized, not ridiculed, and the power that comes with the printing press (or digital press here), is to offer an educated perspective, not childish rumors and toxic press coverage. There could have been a much more professional way to word the difficulties mentioned, and I think this really shows how stigma and ridicule deserve to be discouraged in our minds, perspectives, and communications. Incredibly disappointed in "LookOut ES" for what feels like a National Enquirer level tabloid expose of a human being who deserves better, just like any other human.

Are we being trolled?
