Julia Brim-Edwards
Multnomah County Commissioner
For over two decades, Kellie Torres has delivered for East Portland, and I've seen it firsthand.
While others made promises, Kellie was on the ground working with neighborhoods, families, and local businesses to create safe, accessible, free places to play, walk, and connect with nature. That's not rhetoric. That's a twenty-year track record.
Portland needs trusted leaders who know how to collaborate and get things done. Kellie Torres is that leader.
I'm proud to endorse her. District 3 deserves a champion like Kellie.

Willie Levenson
Founder, Human Access Project
For years, Kellie Torres has been one of the people inside City Hall who didn't just listen to big ideas—she rolled up her sleeves and helped make them happen.
Together, we've worked to make the Willamette River more accessible, welcoming, and joyful for Portlanders. Kellie understands that great cities are built by saying 'yes' to community, removing barriers, and creating public spaces people love.
That's exactly the kind of leadership Portland needs on City Council.

Mingus Mapps
Former Portland City Commissioner
I am proud to endorse Kellie Torres. I know her well. During our years at City Hall, she and I debated nearly every kind of issue that comes before City Council. We did not always agree, but I always found Kellie to be fair, honest, competent, guided by evidence, and unfailingly prepared. She understands how city government works, how to bring people together, and how to turn good intentions into results.
Electing Kellie will make Portland better. She has my vote.
