Welcome to my website.

Dear Multnomah County citizens: 

On January 6,  2010 I withdrew my candidacy for Multnomah County Sheriff. As many of you know, I was running for the office based on the idea that the Sheriff's Office needed a leader with Corrections experience to lead the agency into an uncertain future.
 
Key my success was strong support from the Corrections professionals at MCSO, many of whom urged me to run for the office. However, when the Corrections union voted to endorse the interim designee, it signaled the agency was heading in a different direction than where I wanted to take it.
 
I wish my friends at MCSO the best as they head into 2010 and beyond. I also thank the hundreds of supporters who encouraged and supported me in this effort. I have no regrets and look forward to a prosperous 2010.
 
Sincerely,
 
 
Bruce R. McCain
