Oregon's 6th congressional district is a congressional district created after the 2020 United States census. It consists of Polk County and Yamhill County, in addition to portions of Marion County, Clackamas County, and Washington County.[3]
Oregon's 6th congressional district will elect a member of the United States House of Representatives beginning with the 2022 elections.[4] There were originally sixteen candidates entered in the race, more than for any other congressional seat in the state in 2022.[5][6]
History
On September 27, 2021, Oregon adopted a redistricting plan to be used in the 2022 elections onwards. That plan carved a new 6th congressional district out of parts of the former first and fifth districts.[7] The district had a PVI rating of D+4, as of October 2021.[2]
