Group asks Torrey
to mull campaign
A group wants the mayor
to run for re-election
as a write-in candidate
OMIE DRAWHORN
NEWS REPORTER
A group of Eugene citizens has band
ed together to persuade Mayor Jim Tor
rey to run for a third term as a write-in
candidate in this fall's general election.
The group has set up a Web site
and has run a full-page ad in The
Register-Guard with the words "Run
Jim Run" in large letters across the
top to show its support of the city's
current mayor. The ad also included
a letter to the citizens of Eugene from
former Eugene mayor Jeff Miller en
couraging people to fill out reply
cards or to go to the group's Web site
to show support for Torrey.
Kitty Piercy won the primary may
oral election in May with more than
50 percent of the vote, so only her
name will appear on the ballot in
November's general election.
Torrey said he appreciates the support
"I will certainly consider (running),
but at this point I wouldn't say it's
very likely," he said. "I understand
why they're doing this, but I don't
want them to get their hopes up."
According to the group's Web site,
www.runjimrun.org, the citizens be
hind this effort include "a past mayor,
educators, doctors, housewives,
mothers, sons, daughters, small busi
ness owners and others ... who live,
work and raise families in Eugene."
"We believe at this critical time in
our city's future, we cannot afford to
replace the steady and experienced
leadership of the current Mayor Tor
rey with a liberal majority experimen
tation and special-interest agenda led
by Kitty Piercy," the Web site stated.
Miller's letter in The Register- Guard
ad said Eugene is at a crossroads and
that the city needs Torrey's leadership.
Miller wrote that Torrey will create
more local jobs and continue to im
prove the economy, improve parks and
school resources, lead the city in hos
pital relocation and local health care,
and solve transportation challenges.
"His experience and leadership .
would be sorely missed and lacking as
we consider the direction the govern
ment and city may soon take," the
Web site said.
The effort isn't an anti-Kitty Piercy
campaign, Torrey said, but represents
a concern about the liberal leanings of
the incoming City Council.
As current mayor, Torrey said he
strikes a balance between environmen
tal and business concerns. He added
that some people are concerned that
once the liberal minority on the Coun
cil becomes a majority, it won't be recep
tive to new business or compromise
"Kitty Piercy wants to be a mayor
for all of Eugene," Torrey said. "But
I'm not sure she can be a mayor for all
of Eugene with the makeup of the
council."
