Pacific Green Party of Oregon

By Justin Filip

Secretary, Pacific Green Party

This is an overview of registered Greens in Oregon. Voter registrations are an important way for people to signal their support for a Green platform, and to leverage our collective power.

How many people are registered with the Pacific Green Party in Oregon?

As of January, 2025 there are 8,118 active registered Greens in Oregon. Nationwide, in states that allow partisan registration, there are more than 260,000 registered Greens, making the Green Party the largest independent left party in the United States.

Which generation is most represented among registered Greens?

If you said Millennials, you're right! People ages 29 to 44 make up 36% of all registered Greens in Oregon. Young voters are also looking to the Green Party. 13% of registered Greens in Oregon are Gen Z, and a significant portion of that generation still isn't old enough to vote.

17.5% are under age 30, and 39% are under the age of 40. The median age is 45 and the average age is 46.

Preference for Third Party Remains Historically High

Gallup’s annual Governance survey, which was conducted Sept. 2-16, finds 62% of U.S. adults saying the two major political parties are doing such a poor job that a third party is needed, essentially tied with the record-high 63% reading from 2023.

The Pacific Green Party is calling on members to donate $26 for 2026!

In 2024, the PGP wasn't able to provide financial support to our candidates nor to our chapters the way we need to. Let's do better in 2026. If each of our 8,000+ registered Greens in Oregon gave $26, we would have over $200,000 to run aggressive campaigns for people, the planet, and peace. This is part of our HOW WE WIN strategic initiative for 2026. Will you chip in $26 today?

Green candidates on the West Coast are making some noise! Prof. Butch Ware, and Justin Filip won't be denied a voice in our politics.

We invite you to listen to Prof. Ware's comments from the CBS California Gubernatorial Candidate Forum in Sacramento earlier this week. "They couldn't freeze the Green Party out of this one."

"A June 18 YouGov poll found that 46 percent of the 3,118 U.S. adults surveyed believe a third party is necessary in the U.S. political landscape. Along political lines, 47 percent of Democrats supported a third party, while 35 percent of Republicans did." - Newsweek

We do need something better than the two major parties. This is why we started the Green Party back in 1984!
