On Tuesday, voters in Crook County passed measure 7-86, which asked voters if they support negotiations to move the Oregon/Idaho border to include Crook County in Idaho.  The measure is passing with 53% of the vote, and makes Crook County the 13th county in eastern Oregon to pass a Greater Idaho measure.

    I’m not saying both sides are the same. I’m accusing two different political parties of employing the same shitty tactics, which they most definitely are.

    Is one party more guilty of it? Sure. But denying that the Democrats are gerrymandering is delusional.

    Oregon’s 2021 congressional map received an F from the gerrymandering project for giving one party a significant advantage.

    Drawn and enacted exclusively by Democrats.

    Don’t lie to yourself. They’re still fucking politicians.

        There are several available at the link I shared. It might be more than one click but, because you’re presumably able to read, a big smart guy like you should have no trouble finding them.

      All governments are run by politicians, by definition. Are you in favor of an anarchist power vacuum that will instantly attract people wanting to set up their own terrible governments?
