I claimed the $50 Oregon Political Tax Credit for a donation I made. Can I also claim that donation on my federal taxes under donations or no?

Unfortunately, no.

Per the IRS, you can’t deduct contributions made to a political candidate, a campaign committee, or a newsletter fund. Advertisements in convention bulletins and admissions to dinners or programs that benefit a political party or political candidate aren’t deductible
