Tania Wildbill will be on the ballot as a nonaffiliated candidate for the office of state senator for Oregon’s District 29. The required 791 signatures of registered voters were verified from the 946 on her petition form. She is running to serve the constituents of Eastern Oregon to quell their lamentations of being the invisible citizens of Oregon. She expects action as she makes certain that constituents of District 29 are seen and heard.

Tania is launching a campaign with a significant paradigm shift. Without asking for a penny of donation for her campaign, she has invited people to spend the money for the good of their own communities; e.g., buy pet food for an animal shelter, pay for lunch for a school child, send in a take-out dinner to a recluse elder, etc.

She will not participate in debates, instead, she’s asking voters to invite her into their living rooms where neighbors could gather and discuss local issues, and possible ways to address them as well as celebrate the successes they have already accomplished.

It’s Tania’s sincerity and not her naivete that energized those hopeful ones whose hearts and minds continue to take on the tasks that would make the ideals by which the U.S.A. was founded be manifested. She strongly suggests that voters complete their ballots, vote for Tanai Wildbill as Oregon senator for District 29, and submit them. We will be seen and we will be heard and there will be actions, Together we will make improvements.
