A2 THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, APRIL 1, 2019 Clarno chosen as next secretary of state Republicans. “I’m hon- ored by the confidence that Gov. Brown has placed in me Bev Clarno and pledge to Orego- nians what I pledged to her — that I will serve Orego- nians as their s ecretary of s tate in a professional and non partisan manner and that I will be a good steward of the offi ce,” Clarno said in a statement. In a separate state- ment, Brown praised Clar- no’s “trailblazing spirit, focus on fi scal responsibil- ity, and a commitment to Oregonians.” “Bev’s experience as a legislator and as a manager of a large government orga- nization is key to the suc- cess of the programs and employees the s ecretary of s tate oversees,” the state- ment said. Richardson, the lone Republican holding state- A Republican from Redmond By DIRK VANDERHART Oregon Public Broadcasting A former c entral Oregon lawmaker who rose to the pinnacles of power in both the state House and Senate has been tapped as Oregon’s new secretary of state. Gov. Kate Brown announced Friday afternoon that she’s appointing Bev Clarno, a Republican from Redmond, as a replacement to Secretary of State Den- nis Richardson, who died in February. With the selection, Brown landed on an accom- plished Republican with a knowledge of how Salem operates to oversee import- ant functions like audits and state elections. The 83-year- old Clarno has also agreed to Brown’s condition that she not run for election to the seat next year, a require- ment that has rankled some wide offi ce, died of brain cancer . State law requires Brown to appoint a Repub- lican to fi ll out the rest of his term. The governor announced early on in the search pro- cess that she’d only appoint a person who had no inter- est in running for election, a provision that ensures an open seat is up for grabs next year. The move was consis- tent for Brown, who set the same criteria in 2015 when she unexpectedly ascended from the secretary of state’s offi ce to the governorship and was charged with select- ing her own successor. She wound up appointing Dem- ocrat Jeanne Atkins. Still, the insistence on appointing a short-timer has led to criticism from Repub- licans, who’d like to be able to have a somewhat sea- soned incumbent secretary of state running for election in 2020. In early March, the Ore- gon Republican Party released a list of potential candidates it said would “keep Dennis Richardson’s legacy of transparent and accountable government in place for the next two years, and beyond.” The roster included Richardson’s chief of staff, Debra Royal, and four former GOP state law- makers — among them a former House speaker, Lynn Snodgrass. According to the gov- ernor’s offi ce, Brown took all of those people into account, along with recom- mendations from elsewhere. “More than 20 potential appointees” were screened, and Brown ultimately inter- viewed three people. The governor’s offi ce declined to release the names of the other two fi nalists. “In the interviews, Gov. Brown asked fi nalists about their vision for the Offi ce of Secretary of State, their approach to Dennis Rich- ardson’s legacy, manage- ment of large organizations or government agencies, and commitment to accountabil- ity in state government,” the governor’s offi ce said. Clarno entered politics in 1989, when she landed a seat representing c en- tral Oregon in the House of Representatives. In a recent video promoting her auto- biography, “From Pigs to Politics,” Clarno recounted how she became interested in policymaking when state regulators began visiting her pig farm. “They were really arro- gant and they were kind of threatening to write penal- ties and fi nes. And it just offended me that govern- ment would act that way with people,” Clarno said in the video. “I thought, ‘Gosh, if I ever get my kids raised and get the chance, I’ll go in the Legislature and see if I can change things.’” Prior to running for offi ce, Clarno said she got both an undergraduate degree and attended law school. But her experience as a pig farmer would come to lend her an air of mystique in the Cap- itol — at least partly based on an interaction she had while lobbying for the job of House speaker for the 1995 legislative session. “I asked this one guy from Salem (for his vote) and he says, ‘Well, I don’t know if I’ll vote for you or not. I really think women should be in the kitchen making cookies,’” Clarno recounted in the video. “And I said, ‘You know, I’ve raised 3,000 hogs, and I’ve castrated 200 in a day, and I think I’m tough enough to be speaker.’ Well, that did get leaked around. I’ve been introduced at speeches as castrating 200 bulls in one day.” The Oregonian described Clarno as “strong-willed and ideologically consis- tent” during her time as speaker — just the second woman to hold the position in Oregon’s history — say- ing she’d done a “respect- able job” keeping her major- ity party together.
