Third District
District 3 covers most of Multnomah County, including Portland east of the Willamette River, and the northern part of Clackamas County.
Following the 2010 census, the district boundaries were changed slightly to add Downtown Portland from the 1st district and southwestern Multnomah County from the 5th district, and move part of Multnomah County near Mount Scott and part of northwestern Clackamas County (including most of the city of Milwaukie) to the 5th district.
The district has been represented by Democrat Earl Blumenauer since 1996.
