Enjoyed your article while on a balcony in the French Quarter, an city and state reputed famous for political corruption that has absolutely nothing on Oregon. many years ago, I believe, in the first of my 5 freshman years I had a ploysci class taught by Sue Leeson. Can't remember the text except that the thesis except situations were a problem iff there is a will to correct it. Unfortunately a majority of Oregon voters seem absolutely happy with the status quo as long as the right folks get elected.

The only way to correct past vote-by-mail, ballot-harvesting wrongs is with 755,000 new vote-by-mail, ballot-harvesting wrongs.

Nobody is going to do anything to fix our election problem..... So it's pretty pointless.

what is the difference between Las Vegas and Oregon? none, the house has stacked the odds.

in 2016 the estimated population was about 4.1 million. today the state estimates 4.2 million. during those 8 years 755,000 new voters were registered. where did the additional 655,000 voters come from?
