In 10 years I suspect Oregonians will have a *much* different perspective on the legacy of our one-party progressive utopia. The unintended consequences of empathy-driven, fact-less policies focused on creating a social democracy welfare state will be readily apparent.

Oregon is out of balance, due to unusual *demographic* shifts taking place over the past two decades. It’s not because people are actually thinking through issues and becoming more progressive. Rather, progressive-minded people have moved here from all across the country — to make Oregon “weird”. It’s weirdness will, in the end, be its destruction.

Your narrative ignores non-affiliated voters and how they're going to change everything.

The days of Team Red vs. Team Blue nonsense are numbered.
