4. Wanna see something really strange?
Drive around one of the most conservative SW Portland neighborhoods and you'll see only 1 * sign to about 12 K/E signs. :)

6. You've certainly seen more * stickers than I have
I'm still at 6, TOTAL, for all my driving around Portland in the past few months. I couldn't even try to count the K/E stickers. Just... lots.

The problem with Portland is, and always has been, that we have to generate enough voter turnout in Multnomah county to compensate for the entire eastern half of the state, which is rabidly conservative. While I suspect M36 will bring out the LGBT vote strong in this election, it's going to have an even greater pull in the fundy-dominated parts of the state. So... while it's damn clear Kerry will ace Portland, Oregon itself is a bit of a tossup.

7. I never agreed with Oregon being called a swing state
It was only close in 2000 because Nader got so much of the vote, and he won't be a factor this time.

10. Well I've seen more * stickers than * signs
But I must say, the only signs I've seen also have the pro-measure 36 on them so that says it all. (That's two * signs I've seen)

I noticed the oddest anomaly, a * sticker on a Suburbu in SE Portland. I didn't think it was possible! LOL

But I've seen many Kerry signs in Clackamas co which is close to me.

Also, when we went to Long Beach in WA from Portland we noticed this odd thing, the KERRY signs were huge on the roads. Twice the size, twice the passion. It's obvious that Bunnypants voters are darn near ashamed.
