Former Californians vote 'em in. Not that we're bitter, or anything. 8P
California is not my home state, Michigan is, but never-the-less, I don't really care if I ever go to Delaware anyway, Texas is my favorite place...
You MUST be kidding. I lived in Oregon forty years ago, long before Californians starting moving there in any numbers. I went to school in PDX and the politics there were easily as "progressive/lib" as the Bay Area. When you've got Reed College and the U-of-O as "feeder" systems, you're gonna have a seriously leftist tilt in the voting population.
In fact, most folks from OC, San Diego, or the Inland Empire would be thoroughly put off by Oregon's "progressive" politics.
