Election Day 7:38 p.m.

Osborne Thomas, or “Coach Oz,” was selling Harris campaign merchandise at the Democratic Party of Lane County’s watch party in downtown Eugene.  

The football coach began selling campaign merchandise during the Obama campaign when Oz and his daughter needed to earn money. “Every single house that had an Obama sign on it, I went to that house. 11 minutes later, I made $300,” he said.

Years later, Oz is selling campaign merchandise for the Harris/Walz campaign. He says that Vice President Harris will win because of love. “She loves the country. She’s trying to bring us together. In the end, that always rises to the top.”
