Candidates Gone Wild
Focused on providing an irreverent look at politics and getting young people to vote, Candidates Gone Wild is an unusual part of the Portland electoral tradition. Since first opening in 2002 as “Jabbin’ at the Aladdin,” the event has drawn thousands of young people to each show. Past events have included a candidate talent show in which City Commissioner Dan Saltzman programmed a VCR and also a high stakes “board room” interrogation, where candidates are asked how many jobs they would cut from City government to whose jobs would be lost. Additionally, the event showcases local independent filmmakers and musicians.
