The Deschutes Republican Party stands with the Oregon Republican Party and strongly denounces the move by the Oregon Secretary of State Elections Division to contract with a foreign company to limit the constitutional rights of the American citizenry.
Statement from the Oregon Republican Party 11/7/23:
The Secretary of State has recently signed a contract with a UK based company, Logically Intelligence, to monitor and infringe upon Oregonian’s protected right to free speech through an AI based technology. This contract was enacted without public notice, input, or oversight. Let it be known that the ORP strongly denounces the move by the Oregon Secretary of State Elections Division to contract with a foreign company to limit the constitutional rights of the American citizenry. We are petitioning the SOS to void this contract and dismiss this project. Join us in standing against these unconstitutional acts of our state government by bringing attention to this conduct in your sphere of influence. Let the SOS know you oppose this infringement of your rights by contacting Phillip Andrews at the Oregon Elections Division and the Secretary of State respectively at:
971-600-6269

Sincerely, The Oregon Republican Party
Please contact Phillip Andrews and the Secretary of State. The more people who contact them, the louder our voices will be.

Here is a short video put on RUMBLE by Oregon Citizen
The Oregon Secretary of State's office has put out an RFP for a contract searching for a vendor to provide services to monitor MAL information, MIS information and Dis information. Nikki Fisher (SOS office, Civic & Elections Education) and Phillip Andrews (SOS office Division of procurements and contracts) explain how this has been a project of the SOS office for the past 2 years.
They explain this type of monitoring has been used to track PUBLIC EDUCATION and PSA's and now it will be used to track Information on the internet in regards to elections.
The information that is collected from social media, websites, podcasts will be filtered to the SOS office on a weekly basis and will be examined to determine its threat. It seems that the SOS office is the sole determinate of what is a threat or what is not. What is MDM and what is not. Will questions, personal experiences that people post be determined a "threat"? The information could be escalated and reported to the police, FBI, national guard and other security entities.
OREGONIANS Your social media accounts, websites and podcasts will be monitored.
