据CBS新闻预测，俄勒冈州民主党州长蒂娜·科克成功连任。这场竞选在这个一向倾向民主党的州异常胶着，该州自1982年以来尚未选出过共和党州长。
尽管民主党在全国选举环境中总体占据优势，但科克与克里斯汀·德拉赞的竞选，是美国民主党现任州长选举中最激烈的竞争之一。
科克于2022年首次当选，是美国最不受欢迎的州长之一，该州正面临大量无家可归人口的问题，许多居民认为该州正朝着错误的方向发展。DHM Research在9月开展的一项民调显示，59%的俄勒冈州居民对该州的发展方向表示不满，58%的人对科克本人表示不认可。
四年前，科克在主要工会的支持下获胜，但今年她已失去了部分这类支持。该州最大的公立教育工会拒绝在2026年的对决中背书。
今年的竞选是2022年的复赛，当时科克以微弱优势击败德拉赞，赢得了她的第一个任期。
这场竞选围绕俄勒冈州的地方议题展开，包括生活成本高企和无家可归问题加剧，不过科克试图将德拉赞与特朗普总统联系起来，毕竟这位总统在2024年以超过14个百分点的差距输掉了该州，人气不高。
前州议会领导人德拉赞则试图将该州的经济和无家可归问题归咎于科克及州议会的民主党多数派。
10月，本德市发生一起校园枪击案，令该州震动。一名16岁持枪者开枪打死三名学生和一名教师，随后被一名武装旁观者击毙。枪击案发生后，德拉赞和科克都在本德停留过一段时间，科克还宣布进入紧急状态，以便为该地区提供援助。
Oregon’s Democratic Gov. Tina Kotek wins after tough reelection battle
November 4, 2026 / 1:29 AM EST / CBS News
Oregon’s Democratic Gov. Tina Kotek wins reelection, CBS News projects, a closer-than-expected campaign in a reliably blue state that hasn’t elected a Republican governor since 1982.
Although Democrats were generally favored in the national environment, Kotek’s race against Christine Drazan was one of the biggest nail-biters for a Democratic incumbent in the country.
Kotek, first elected in 2022, is one of the most unpopular governors in the country as the state struggles with a large homeless population and as many residents feel the state is going in the wrong direction. A DHM Research poll in September showed 59% of Oregonians disapproved of the state’s direction, and 58% disapproved of Kotek.
While Kotek won four years ago with the backing of major labor unions, she had lost some of that support support this year. The the state’s largest public education union declined to endorse in the 2026 matchup.
This year’s race was a rematch of 2022, when Kotek narrowly defeated Drazan to win her first term.
The race centered on local issues in Oregon, including affordability and the rising homelessness, but Kotek tried to tie Drazan to President Trump given the president’s unpopularity in a state he lost by more than 14 points in 2024.
Drazan, a former statehouse leader, tried to blame the state’s economic and homelessness problems on Kotek and the Democratic majority in the statehouse.
The state was rocked by a school shooting in Bend in October. A 16-year-old gunman shot and killed three students and a teacher before an armed bystander shot and killed him. Both Drazan and Kotek spent time in Bend after the shooting, and Kotek declared an emergency to help bring aid to the area.
