“"Under Oregon law, a verdict against a criminal defendant may be affirmed notwithstanding trial error if the error did not affect a `substantial right' of the defendant. OEC 103(1). This court has interpreted this to mean that the verdict may be affirmed if there is `little likelihood that the error affected the verdict.' State v. Hansen, 304 Or 169, 180-81 , 743 P2d 157 (1987); see also State v. Miller, 300 Or 203, 220-22 , 709 P2d 225 (1985) [ cert. den. 475 U.S. 1141 , 106 S.Ct. 1793 , 90 L.Ed.2d 339 (1986) ]."”
