Matt Lindland, Oregon Republican House of Representatives Nominee
The News - Mixed Martial Arts  |   Written by Marshall Bowen   |   Wednesday, 21 May 2008

Matt Linland is one step closer to becoming an Oregon House Representative. KATU, the ABC affiliate in Portland, OR, is reporting that Lindland won Tuesday's Republican primary in the state by 14 percentage points. Lindland secured almost twice the amount of votes as his opponent. He is now the Republican candidate for the 52nd District of the state which includes some of the rural parts of the state near Portland.

As was reported my many outlets including myself and MMAjunkie.com back in March that Lindland, who was born and still resides in the state, was considering a run for the House seat with the incumbent representative retiring.

Linland, who has not fought since an April 2007 loss to Fedor Emelianeko, is schudeled to fight again for the "Affliction: Banned" show on July 19 taking on Fabio Negao.

I can\'t help but think that any bill that passes through the Oregon house will pass through with little opposition.
