In her secretary of state introduction page, she writes:

First, I want to say that I am not a politician. I spent my career as an auditor in Portland and Multnomah County before retiring in 2014. I have no intention of running for the job when it’s on the ballot next year. I have no political career to consider, no donors to appease, and no agenda beyond the genuine desire to run this agency with integrity. 2A06:C701:49A3:BD00:824:D41E:FE48:6BE1 (talk) 01:44, 20 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
