What's the political/ideological climate of the central part of the state?
Eugene, Springfield and the Portland area are filled with the vilest of leftist scum.
The rural areas are entirely different. SW OR has become more liberal due to leftist scum from CA moving here and some hippies who already lived here; but even some of the hippies are conservative.
It’s like black and white. The rural parts of OR are getting extremely fed up being ruled by a few cities. There is a seccession movement make some noise, Southern OR and some northern counties of CA - the State of Jefferson. I’m all for it.
Central west — liberal around Eugene
Central east — conservative all over.
The only blue areas basically are Portland, Eugene and Corvallis. The rest is all red.
