A political group lobbying against the ballot measure that could change Portland’s government structure and voting process has accused the city of presenting misleading information about the proposed changes and openly advocating for the ballot measure. The complaint surrounds Measure 26-228, the highly contested amendment to Portland’s city charter. Every ten years, a group of volunteers are appointed by City Council to review the city charter—which functions like a city constitution—for possible updates and changes.
