13th conservative Oregon county approves measure to secede and join ‘Greater Idaho’

Another right-leaning county in eastern Oregon has voted to secede from the Democrat-run state and join neighboring Idaho, according to reports.

Crook County residents passed the measure by a 53% majority Tuesday, making it the 13th county in the state to sign onto the movement known as “Greater Idaho,” NewsNation reported.

“The voters of eastern Oregon have spoken loudly and clearly about their desire to see border talks move forward,” said the Greater Idaho movement’s executive director Matt McCaw.

“With this latest result in Crook County, there’s no excuse left for the Legislature and Governor to continue to ignore the people’s wishes.”

The difference between the people of eastern and western Oregon is vast.

Its an extreme long shot, but I hope it succeeds.

The whole I-5 corridor has always been a leftist mess for as long as I can remember. Oregon is one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Portland used to be quite the city but I would never want to live anywhere near there again.

When some of my family first moved up there it was ultraconservative and logging was a major industry. You'd see signs telling Californian's to go back to California. The transition was interesting. A lot of the older Oregan clans must not be happy with what's happened along the I5 corridor.
