2006 Run for Congress
In May, 2006, Voisin became the Democratic nominee for U.S. Congress in Oregon's 2nd congressional district, winning the primary in a race between four candidates.
Voisin faced incumbent Republican Greg Walden in the 2006 general election. Her campaign stressed Walden's support for Bush administration policies, including invasion of Iraq, health care policies she characterized as inadequate, record budget deficits, and cuts in federal education spending, and environmental policies she described as disastrous. Outspent $1,160,087 to $58,621, she was defeated. Voison's 30.36 percent of the vote pushed Walden's winning percentage below 70 percent for the first and so far only time in 9 re-election bids.[1]
