State Sen. Elizabeth Steiner, a Democrat, has won the Oregon treasurer's race, making her the first woman to hold the position in state history. Steiner, who leads with 51% of the vote against Republican Brian Boquist, previously served as a co-chair of the budget-writing committee and plans to focus on improving financial literacy and establishing a 'baby bonds' program for newborns. Following her victory, Sen. Steiner will resign from her Senate seat, paving the way for Rep. Lisa Reynolds to seek her appointment to complete Steiner's term. Reynolds aims to implement a 'Momnibus 2025' policy package aimed at addressing housing security and child poverty. Meanwhile, Democrat Tobias Read is leading the race for secretary of state, aiming to restore competence and stability to the role after a period of turmoil in Oregon's election oversight. The election outcomes may lead to significant shifts in the Oregon legislature as appointments and resignations unfold.
