Opinion: Most communities in Oregon and the US are Republican, yet Democrats are in charge

Assuming election results are valid in Oregon, which does take a lot of faith these days after the questions about the 2020 US Presidential election arose, Democrat Tina Kotek won the Governor’s race in 2022 by a slim margin over Republican Christine Drazan. The interesting aspect of this win is how many of Oregon’s 36 counties voted Republican vs. Democrat.

Looking at the political map, almost the entire state is red with only a few small counties in the northwest having the blue color. Specifically, there were 7 counties that voted Democrat and 29 that voted Republican. The difference is the 7 counties voting blue are the most populous counties, also the counties with the most residents coming from other states – much like Tina Kotek herself, a transplant from Pennsylvania.

Tina only won the campaign to be Oregon’s 39th Governor by 66,727 votes over Christine Drazan. Said in another way, the Democrats pulled off another close election with mail-in balloting, which they have an uncanny ability to do.

The interesting cultural point this election shows us is how the vast majority of Oregon’s culture and way of life is decidedly in the Republican camp with their values, yet they are being ruled by a small highly densely populated urban area that has Democrat values. In other words, big city and liberal university values are being imposed on the vast majority of Oregon’s communities without any recourse.

Oregon is one of the worst cases of this imbalance of power going against the majority of its communities, yet this is what’s happening to the entire US. The vast majority of the US is red, while the large urban areas are essentially the only places that are blue.

In other words, the vast majority of the communities in the US hold the values of Republicans, while the densely populated urban areas hold the values of the Democrats. Considering the immorality that has always been associated with large urban areas, and that large cities are where the majority of residents are who are not originally from the US, what does this imbalance of power mean for the US?

The traditional values of the US that made this country great are held by those in the red areas, while the radical left’s values that are trying to change the US into something entirely different are held by the blue areas.

Maybe seeing how the vast majority of American communities hold Republican values will help those who love traditional America see where the political fight is being waged, that is, against the densely populated urban areas where the liberal universities and transplants are.

Houses Aren’t For the Average American

  Most Americans are priced out of owning a house. The powers to be in their infinite wisdom and social engineering manipulations have deemed the vast majority of Americans as unworthy of owning a house.  You can live in a rented apartment or house, yet forget about buying a home, even one that is nearly 100 years old.  Here is the pecking order of living standards as an adult: Live with parents Homeless in bushes Homeless in car Homeless in RV Live in RV in an RV park with utilities Live in a house with others sharing a bathroom and kitchen Live in a quint or quad and share kitchen and bathroom Live in a quint or quad and share kitchen, have own bathroom Live in a studio apartment with own bathroom and kitchen Live in a one-bedroom apartment Live in a two or three-bedroom apartment Live in a rented house Live in a house you are buying Live in a house you own (except for property taxes and eminent domain laws) These cover most of the levels of living arrangements, yet not...

Views are Like Customers to Writers

Writing online entails considering how many impressions, views, visitors/reads, comments, shares, and reactions each article gets. These digital assets symbolize the money made from each article. How many views did that article get — that poem, story, blog post, picture, art piece? The number will determine how much money the article made. While most writers appreciate even one single read, this doesn’t pay much. On the high end, this might bring .02 cents. Usually, around half a cent, or $5 RMP. Different Writing Platforms and Efforts At Medium views don’t turn into a specific amount of money, rather they are merely an indication of possible money — reads are more important at Medium, as they correlate closely with any money made. Each read at Medium this month made me around that .02 cent mark! The reads at Medium might not be from members, so may not make us money. Still, on average, both views and reads equal a certain estimated amount for each Medium writer. At Vocal, they make it...

Turn Off the Modern World

Meditate upon the truth. The sped-up modern world shifting sideways into chaos, while petty offenses derail vows made with double-minded sincerity. Lacking perspective, the masses rationalize hedonistic actions under the pretense of selfish justifications. Turn off the modern world, meditate on the truth of our existence. Find the truth by loving it with unselfish motives and sincere desire. There they are, rattling off another conditioned lie, oblivious of the spiritual manifestation within their cursed souls. Deceived and being deceived, their sins blinding them to reality, demons guiding them into a pit of destruction. The hive mind-blowing heavy misery in the right-left paradigm; showers of hate wrapped in self-righteous lies. Where it leads is lost on the weak-minded adherents so sure of themselves and the illusions they chase. The time has come to turn off the modern world, for it is a frequency of deception, a triple-cross betrayal wrapped in a hopeful tomorrow for those who see...
