Oregon Court of Appeals hears first oral arguments on Measure 114 By Lucas Hellberg City News Reporter

On Oct. 29, a lawyer for the Oregon Department of Justice asked the Oregon Court of Appeals to allow Measure 114, a gun control measure Oregon voters narrowly approved in 2022, to take effect. Measure 114, currently stalled in court, would require a firearm safety course and a permit to purchase a firearm in Oregon. It also would ban the sale or transfer of magazines that hold more than 10 rounds and close the “Charleston Loophole,” which allows firearm dealers to release a firearm to a buyer after three days if their background check has not yet cleared.

At a Nov. 7 Post-Election Roundtable in the Ford Alumni Center, students, professors and some “election experts,” including former U.S. Representative for Oregon’s 4th Congressional District Peter DeFazio, shared their reactions and perspectives on the general election. The roundtable was sponsored by the Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics, and held a panel including DeFazio and UO professors Chandler James, Alison Gash, Regina Lawrence and Neil O’Brian. The roundtable was organized through a moderated question-and-answer session. Daniel Tichenor, the moderator of the event, kicked off the forum by showing information revealing that 90% of counties nationwide shifted their voting patterns to the ideological right compared to the 2020 general election. The attention then shifted to the panelists, who responded to questions about the election and its implications for college students and Americans. James, an assistant professor of political science, criticized Trump’s campaign, calling it “racist” and “sexist.” “Trump ran an unconventional campaign in that he was openly racist and sexist. What that said to me is that many of the norms that are constrained in a normal democracy are no longer relevant,” James said. James also compared the educational background of voters. He said that college graduates have access to resources that make them more in-
