Ore. — What if part of Oregon, joined the state of Idaho? A group in southern Oregon is petitioning to move Idaho’s border west to include a portion of the beaver state. Organizers of the ballot title say they feel southern Oregon residents are often ignored by lawmakers.
I may have to move to Medford, which would suit me just fine. The Portland metro area was okay 30 or 40 years ago, but east coast and California transplants have really screwed the place up. It'd be really nice to see the idea come to fruition! Too bad for residents of places like Astoria, as they'd continue to be dominated by Portland's imported fruits and nuts.
