Gabriel Buehler is a proud Oregonian, veteran, and leader dedicated to bringing transparency, accountability, and unity to the Oregon Republican Party. Born and raised in the state he loves, Gabriel’s path to leadership has been shaped by resilience, determination, and commitment to serving others. After two tours in Iraq, he returned home to Oregon to build a life with his wife, Christina, and their three children.
With a professional background in commercial construction management, Gabriel has honed his skills in problem-solving and leadership. His experience working for Portland Public Schools opened his eyes to systemic issues of fraud, waste, and corruption, driving him to demand better for Oregon. Rising through the ranks of the Oregon GOP from the grassroots level to his current position as Chairman of the Washington County Republican Party, Gabriel has already achieved meaningful change through collaborative and community-driven initiatives.
Gabriel’s vision for the Oregon Republican Party is deeply rooted in modernizing its systems, fostering inclusivity, and restoring voter and donor trust. .
Restoring donor confidence is essential. Whether contributions come from large donors or grassroots supporters, Oregonians want to trust that their hard-earned money is advancing a worthy cause. Following campaign finance reform, the Oregon Republican Party and local counties should position themselves as the most reliable, effective channels for political funding in the state.
We have two years to prove that donations will be strategically allocated to make Oregon a better place. This requires transparency, accountability, and measurable results to assure donors that their contributions are making a tangible impact.
Clear, cohesive messaging is key to earning voter trust and connecting with Oregonians across all counties. The Oregon Republican Party must speak in unison, promoting shared values and solutions that address the challenges we face.
With the Democratic legislature holding a supermajority, it is more critical than ever to highlight key issues. For example, Oregonians recently rejected increased taxes in the general election, but new taxes remain on the table. Messaging must amplify this disconnect by asking voters one simple question, "Is this what you voted for?"
By emphasizing relatable, issue-based messaging, we can inspire voters to believe in a Republican-led future for Oregon.
Empowering Counties with Data
A modernized, self-sufficient approach to voter data is essential to our success. Relying on third-party platforms that can falter during critical moments must be a thing of the past. Empowering counties to manage and refine their own voter data ensures accuracy, continuity, and efficiency—vital components of a winning strategy.
By working together with the Oregon Republican Party, counties can build and maintain robust data systems that serve as the backbone of our campaign efforts.
True leadership requires placing others’ needs above one’s own ambitions. Oregon Republicans deserve leaders who work collaboratively, listen to all voices, and value the best ideas, regardless of their source. Transparency will be at the core of party operations, ensuring that committee appointments are based on merit, not election promises or political factions.
My door will always be open. I pledge to be accessible to precinct- and county-level leaders, as well as all Republican voters. Together, we will foster a culture of inclusivity and trust to propel our party forward.
The upcoming campaign finance reform is not just a challenge; it’s a defining opportunity. By adapting to new regulations, doubling down on transparency, and empowering counties, we can rebuild trust, engage voters, and secure the future of the Oregon Republican Party.
Together, we can create a stronger, more unified party that represents the values of all Oregonians. Join me in this mission to lead with integrity, inspire confidence, and build a brighter future for Oregon.
