My name is Cye Sterling (D); a democratic candidate, running to represent Oregon’s District 43. My campaign is entirely grassroots, and I have chosen not to continuously solicit or accept campaign contributions from the public. My campaign is currently running it’s one and only fundraiser. When I say that money must be removed from politics, I demonstrate that conviction through my actions. The growing disconnect between what voters support and what politicians deliver is driven largely by the influence of money in our political system. I am committed to serving the people with integrity guided solely by the principles and promises I’ve outlined here.

I am a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, because I feel strongly that our governments have a resposibility to ensure its vulnerable have housing, food, and medical care. Capitalism and Socialism can co-exist and compliment one another; a duel governance. This is the foundation for a life full of pursuing dreams. Capitalism demands a healthy economy, and a healthy economy demands long term stability.

I am running for office because I believe Oregonians have the right to pursue their own happiness. With your vote, I will have the power to ensure nobody stands in your way. It is time for courage in our country. We can do government in ways that ensure all can succeed. We can begin new with Oregon leading by example.

IMPLEMENTATION OF CONTINUOS CONSTITUENT POLLING

I would implement Constituent Steering Polls: A continuous, open public polling channel where constituents in my district can: See what I am working on. Weigh in as I move through decisions. Suggest direction before anything is final.

Instead of one-time town halls, this becomes a living town hall that never closes. I’m going to run continuous constituent steering polls on every major issue I work on, so you do not have to hope I am representing you, you will see it and make that happen.

Representation shouldn’t happen behind closed doors — it should happen with you in the room, every day. I don’t just want to represent my district, I want to govern with my district.
