Oregon's 5th congressional district

Common card · No. 211434

Oregon's 5th congressional district stretches from the Southeast corner of Portland through the eastern half of the Willamette Valley and then reaches across the Cascades to take in Sisters and Bend. It is one of six Oregon congressional districts. It includes a sliver of Multnomah County, the majority of Clackamas County, the rural eastern portion of Marion County, most of Linn County, a very small section of southwest Jefferson County, and the populated northwest portion of Deschutes County. It was significantly redrawn when Oregon gained a 6th congressional district after the 2020 census. The district is currently represented by Democrat Janelle Bynum. Following its creation after the 1980 census, the first five members to represent the district all got divorced while in office, a pattern that has brought the district to media attention.
