2002 United States Senate election in Oregon
County results Smith: 40-50% 50-60% 60-70% 70-80% 80-90%Bradbury: 50–60%
The 2002 United States Senate election in Oregon was held on November 5, 2002. Incumbent Republican United States Senator Gordon Smith ran for re-election to a second term. Oregon Secretary of State Bill Bradbury emerged as the Democratic nominee, and though a competitive gubernatorial election occurred at the same time, Bradbury's campaign was never able to gain traction and Smith overwhelmingly won re-election (Bradbury only carried Multnomah County ). As of 2024, this is the last time the Republicans have won a U.S. Senate election in Oregon.
Smith, who had only served one term in the U.S. Senate, had slightly lower than a 50% approval rating before the summer of 2002 began.[ 2] [ 3]
