Oregon primary sets up November rematches as Drazan wins GOP governor nomination and Merkley eyes re-election

With polls closed, Oregon's primary results largely clear: U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley is likely to face either David Brock Smith or Jo Rae Perkins in November; the Associated Press has called all six U.S. House primaries with no major competitive races; Republican Christine Drazan won the GOP governor nomination to face incumbent Tina Kotek; Labor Commissioner Christina Stephenson will serve a second term; Measure 120 to raise gas tax and fees was decisively defeated; incumbents and endorsed newcomers are generally winning in the Legislature, with a few close races still being counted.
