Anthony Broadman is an American Democratic politician currently serving in the Oregon Senate. He represents the 27th district, which consists of parts of Deschutes County centered around the greater Bend area.
Broadman is the first Democrat to represent the 27th Senate district since 1980, a period of over 40 years.[1] He was elected to the open seat previously held by Republican Tim Knopp, who was rendered ineligible to run for re-election due to his participation in the 2023 Oregon Senate walkout and the passage of Measure 113, which denied eligibility to run for re-election to any state legislator with 10 or more unexcused absences in a legislative session.[2]
