Hello BLUE SKY!

My name is Nick Walden Poublon. I was the '24 Democratic nominee for Oregon HD 52. I narrowly lost a race against the Republican Minority Leader who stepped down from that position after eking out a win on me. I have three cats, a husband I love and a country I'm desperate to save.
We’ve officially been together TWENTY-FOUR years.

We just keep choosing each other.

The greatest gift you can give someone is the freedom to feel safe, seen, and comfortable in their own skin.

Each of us has that power.

Use it.

LET’S NOT FORGET: Approximately 70% of adults receiving food stamps (SNAP) work 35 hours or more a week.

Nobody grows up and dreams of needing foot stamps.

SNAP is a safety net we can’t afford to cut.

I have news for you:

I teach.

Kids are already coming to school hungry from a lack of food in my district.

SNAP running dry will only make that worse.

We should be ashamed.

I’m a substitute teacher, health policy expert, uncle, husband — and a candidate to represent Oregon’s beautiful 52nd District in the State House.

People always say we need real people in office.

Well, here I am.

Follow along for the ride — and let’s make Oregon work for everyone.

Look — I’ve known grown men who have broken down in tears after going through conversion therapy.

And we’re seriously asking if it’s okay for kids?

Absolutely not. Never.

Trust an actual Oregonian and not the ill-suited President: Portland, Oregon is not war-ravaged, it is not on fire — the only chaos is being caused by Trump himself.

OREGON and PORTLAND win AGAIN.
BREAKING: Immergut has *granted* Oregon and California's motion to block the new call-up of Guard troops to Portland. She says this effort to bring CA and TX troops to Oregon is in "direct contravention" of her oroginal order.

An emergency motion is going before a judge RIGHT NOW to keep California National Guard troops out of Oregon.

Portland isn’t the problem — Trump is.

The thing that makes me the sickest is that these folks don’t even have a shred of compassion. It’s one thing to enforce laws and rules. It’s another to do it gleefully and celebrate the suffering of someone born into poverty and desperation

I’m running for office in my native Oregon precisely because of the ugliness in our politics. When things get ugly, more people need to stand up — not step back. I’m standing up for decency, for hope, and for the future we deserve.

Hey all. I know the folks behind this effort in Wilsonville, Oregon and this looks like an amazing series of speakers if you’re wanting to know more about supporting the transgender community in our state.
Mina Lemke, Micah Bishop, Dr. Laura LaJoie, Frankie Lane, and Maddy Oiseau share lived experiences, offer insight from family members, and discuss how resources from NAMI Clackamas and @basicrightsoregon.bsky.social can support our transgender community.

The government shutdown isn’t just politics—it’s economics. Every week it drags on costs our nation $7 BILLION. That’s money lost from families, businesses, and communities. End the chaos. Put people first. #GovernmentShutdown #7Billion

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Looking to FOLLOW BACK those who won’t give up on this country—those ready to help rebuild when this dark chapter closes.

There will be an America after MAGA.

If you’re ready to head in that direction with me, follow back and let’s get started—today.

Portland is a living, breathing city with challenges: housing affordability, homelessness, traffic, safety — but also with thriving neighborhoods, culture, and people working together for a better future. The language of “war zones” and “battlefields” is political theater designed to stoke fear.
