Saxton's endorsing alma mater endorses Novick

Rumor is it'll be in Sunday's "The Oregonian" newspaper.

Yes, this would be the same newspaper that endorsed GOPer Ron Saxton over Governor Ted Kulongoski in 2006.

As I recall, the Eugene Register Guard countered The O's Saxton endorsement with an endorsement of Kulongoski. They recently endorsed Jeff Merkley over Steve Novick for the Dem. Primary.

Apparently the Medford Mail Tribune which just endorsed Novick, also endorsed Ron Saxton for Governor in 2006.

So if we charted it out these endorsements by the state's three biggest newspapers would look something like this:

• Oregonian: Saxton & Novick

• Register Guard: Kulongoski & Merkley

• Mail Tribune: Saxton & Novick
