The "Greater Idaho" movement continues to gain steam, promising to liberate conservative counties east of the Deschutes River from the ruinous policies and Democratic control all but ensured by residents in the more populous leftist areas nearer the coast, such as Mayor Ted Wheeler's crime-ravaged Portland.

On Tuesday, Crook County voters were presented with ballot measure 7-86, which asked: "Should Crook County represent that its citizens support efforts to move the Idaho state border to include Crook County?"

The majority signaled their support for moving the state border westward and joining their conservative compatriots in the Gem State.

Citizens for Greater Idaho president Mike McCarter, a firearms instructor from the town of LaPine, alternatively argued, "There is a way to get better governance for central and eastern Oregon. The current location of the Oregon/Idaho border was decided 165 years ago and is now outdated because it doesn't match the location of the dividing line between the counties that prefer Idaho's style of governance and counties that prefer Oregon's style of governance."

McCarter, whose organization has elsewhere suggested that "only 25% of Oregonians who are registered to vote are registered Republican," stressed that the alternative would be to continue living under the thumb of Oregon politicians who "don't understand how we make a living. Their decisions damage industries like timber, mining, trucking, ranching and farming."
I can understand why they would want to exit Oregon. But, does Idaho have tampons in boy's washrooms? That should be a human right.

Quote from: Conservative Perspective on Today at 03:23:00 AMGOP committee sounds alarm on document it says 'confirms' fears about Biden agency's activities in key state

A Republican-led committee has released a document they say shows the Biden administration improperly working to register voters in a key battleground state.

The Small Business Administration (SBA) acting as Biden's Michigan campaign arm targeting Democrat bloc voters to get out out and vote instead of trying to help small businesses.

The Biden administration is corrupt to it's core.

Can't you go play in your thread. Lokmar still reads your bullshit.
Joe has a calendar on the wall from 2008. His attention starved trolling is antiquated.

Quote from: JOE on May 23, 2024, 10:09:20 PMIts because Americans have a Winner take all electoral college.

They should allow the losing parties to get a share of them.

Of course it's unfair.

But it's also unfair when Republicans take all the EVs in a state as well. Democrats shouldn't get all of California either

Greater Idaho suggested that the "yes" vote would likely have been more substantial were it not for the opposition campaign bankrolled by Portland groups.

Idaho Gov. Brad Little indicated in 2020 — as the first of the eastern Oregon counties began to vote in favor of leaving Oregon to its troubles — that he liked the idea of a "Greater Idaho."

Little told "Fox & Friends" that he understood "what takes place in the Portland area has a big impact on those rural parts of Oregon, and I understand they're looking at Idaho fondly because of our regulatory atmosphere, our values. That doesn't surprise me one bit."

Little noted, however, there would be various legal "hurdles" prospective western Idahoans would have to clear first. The U.S. Congress and both the Oregon and Idaho state legislatures would have to approve the border shift.

KOIN-TV noted that the Idaho legislature passed a measure last year to begin conversations with Oregon lawmakers about the initiative.

Quote from: Oliver the Second on May 23, 2024, 09:40:39 PMSo I'm poasting a video in the music thread and I start wondering if I already poasted it before... the music thread is 79 pages so going page by page would take too long... I know how to see my previous poasts but that's for the entire forum, so is there a way where I could see my previous poasts in that thread only?

Or should I just poast it again anyway because nobody else is going to go through 79 pages either?

Aw crap, I'm stoned and rambling again...

Just wondering.

 
I've posted the same Skynyrd videos. I was stoned when I did it.
