ROSEBURG, Ore. -- The candidate list for Roseburg public offices is finalized.
There weren't any last minute entries, and all of those running for Roseburg City Council are running unopposed.
The race for mayor, however, has two candidates.
Incumbent Larry Rich is facing Mike Baker, who has served on the council for nearly eight years.
The ballot is now certified for the November election.
I think there is a lack of information made available to the public. Â The local news outlets run this type of story after the fact instead of a month before and I didn't see any of the public schools, or other government groups with signs indicating that there was an election coming up. Seems like homogeneity is encouraged and oligarchic thinking abounds.
