Chris Telfer is a former Republican and current Independent Party of Oregon politician and Certified Public Accountant in Bend , Oregon , United States.
Telfer serves on the Bend City Council, and was elected to the Oregon State Senate in the November 2008 elections , to succeed outgoing senator Ben Westlund .[1] Hers was the only seat that changed parties in the Senate in that election cycle; her campaign spent $300,000 to opponent Maren Lundgren's $12,000.[2] The shift, however, left Democrats with an 18-12 majority, allowing them to pass increases to taxes and fees without Republican support.[3] (A 1996 law requires a 3/5 supermajority in both houses of the Oregon Legislative Assembly for such measures.)
Telfer has lived in Bend since 1977.[4] She has two daughters.[4]
She earned a bachelor's degree at the University of Denver , and did post-graduate work at Franklin University and the University of Oregon .[4] She has taught at Central Oregon Community College and served as vice-chair on the Bend Development Board .[4]
In 2010, Telfer filed for the special election for Oregon State Treasurer, to complete the term of Ben Westlund , who died in office,[5] but lost to Democratic incumbent Ted Wheeler in the November general election.[6]
In the Republican primary of the 2012 legislative elections , Telfer was defeated by Tim Knopp , a former state Representative and vice president of the Central Oregon Builders Association.[7]
She became the Oregon Lottery Commissioner. In 2016, she won the Independent Party of Oregon 's nomination for Treasurer of Oregon . She lost in the general election to Tobias Read .[8]
