METSGER Welches Democrat

State Sen. Rick Metsger, D-Welches, said Tuesday that he may join the crowded race for governor.

Metsger said he will file an exploratory effort next week to test whether he can mount a challenge in the Democratic primary against Gov. Ted Kulongoski. Lane County Commissioner Peter Sorenson has joined the Democratic primary, and state Sen. Vicki Walker, D-Eugene, has launched an exploratory candidacy.


The Republican race has already attracted Salem attorney Kevin Mannix, Portland attorney Ron Saxton and state Sen. Jason Atkinson, R-Central Point."
