I am waiting for the fat lady to sing...

Rosie O'Donnell?

When they pass the next bill to start confiscation, you'll get in line.

I mean, no.

Was there any need for that attitude?

Those numbers are wrong. Current numbers are shown in link below. The numbers are supposed to be updated at 10 pm (fwiw).

Oregon Secretary of State

The Oregon Secretary of State works to maximize voter participation, is a watchdog for public spending, makes it easier to do business in Oregon, and preserves and promotes Oregon history.

Actually not wrong, but quite a bit behind in the vote tally. Still pretty close with only 1/2 the vote in so far... Multnomah is always the county that drives the state measures.

There's still hope boys and girls. Hold fast

Laws that we think are unconstitutional nevertheless remain in force until such a time as they are repealed as such. If the measure passes, ignoring it would be...unwise.

Hard No. Pass.

Politicians can eat a d!ck.

Im praying to god this doesn't pass, it's within 1% right now.

Hopefully, a higher percentage of the lib votes have been counted in Multnomah by now. With more of the conservative locales starting to negate them.

FYI looks like about 1/3 of multnomah county registered voters reported so far (187k). fwiw, registered voters doesn't necessarily they voted tonight.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Oregon has mail in balloting. Correct? It will pass.
Just like Washington has never had a republican in the executive branch since 2004 when they shoved it down our throats.

Correct. Everyone always says mailed in ballots trend towards liberal but something this close, who knows (until we know for sure).

I'm afraid your right. I don't have any faith in the system we have simply because it's so easy to manipulate it. I still can't get over being called a racist/fascist etc. Because I thought that in person voting and voter Id was a good thing.

Indeed. Supposedly they'll count ballots received after today until the 15th of Nov as long as they're "postmarked by the 8th of November"

We are gaining ground. Don't give up hope yet.

You should see the live convo on Reddit regarding the elections. Pro 114 folks calling the idea that 114 can disproportionally effect minorities crazy. Meanwhile they oppose voter ID cause it may disproportionally effect minorities. Can't make it up.

Well yeah, that's what I'm talking about, absentee ballots are fine but there should never be mail in ballots for General elections, ever.
