It\u2019s shameful enough that a man who ducked Oregon taxes by residing in Washington, while earning big bucks warming the bench for the Trail Blazers, would even run to be governor of our state, but it appears that Chris Dudley was fraudulently living in Oregon at the time.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"11Dudley\"<\/a> Republican candidate for governor Chris Dudley continued to use his Portland home during the years he claimed Camas, Wash., as his residence to avoid paying thousands of dollars in Oregon taxes<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Interviews with people in Dudley’s former neighborhood and public records show that Dudley may not have stopped using his Portland home to the extent needed to claim he was no longer an Oregon resident for tax purposes<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Dudley did live in Camas, but the couple who bought Dudley’s Portland home in 1997 — more than two years after he said he moved to Camas — said he was still using the house at the time, and that Dudley had clothes in the closet, food in the refrigerator and sports equipment in the garage<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Dudley has said that, while playing center for the Portland Trail Blazers in the 1990s, he moved from Portland’s Forest Heights neighborhood to Camas to avoid paying Oregon taxes on all of his income. Washington doesn’t have an income tax\u2026 [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So in addition to having no political experience, no record of public service to Oregon, and no new ideas, Chris Dudley appears to be a tax evader against our state.  His only agenda is to act as a front man for his millionaire backers.  In short, he\u2019s a typical Republican.<\/font><\/p>\n
