If you want this on your ballot, there are two ways:
1. Ask your county commissioners to refer an advisory question to the ballot
2. Send us your email address so that we can send you a petition when the petition is ready for circulation in your county. The petition is so that you can help collect signatures to force it onto the ballot if your commissioners ignore you.

Group petitions to join Idaho, blaming Oregon's liberal Democrats
If you live in a county that voted on moving the border, tell us your guess about what percentage of the voters who voted had heard about greater Idaho before voting on it? And what percentage knew that Idaho taxes are lower overall than Oregon taxes?
We expect to get better numbers in the May 2021 election because:
1. The vote will occur during Oregon's legislative session, when people are upset about new bills, and still upset about the drug decriminalization.
2. More people will have heard about the lower taxes and traditional values of Idaho by then.
3. We might be allowed to put arguments in the voters pamphlet in some cases.
Oregonians: convince your neighbors and collect signatures.
Idahoans: ask your state legislators to have the Idaho government do a study of the greater Idaho concept. Tell them that moving the border pushes Oregon drug laws farther away from your county.
We need to make greater Idaho more popular in rural Oregon before we can get very far in Oregon's Legislature. I think we need to average at least 60% in favor.
In comment sections we're seeing more people say "I prefer to give Portland to Washington." Here's how to respond to that: "That would be great, but we should focus our efforts on something that the Oregon Legislature would allow. Dems in the Oregon Legislature wouldn't allow that because it would weaken the Democratic Party in Oregon, and increase the chances that we would add Republicans to the US Senate. But the greater Idaho plan doesn't do that."
"Trout said calls by himself and other election officials for third-party verification systems to prevent Oregon from hacking of election systems went unheeded."
Rural Oregon has no power to force fair elections in Oregon. But we trust Idaho to run fair elections. It's time to move the border.
Last week, two Oregon counties voted to require their county commissioners to hold meetings about moving the Oregon/Idaho border: Union and Jefferson counties.

Oregon's drug laws are going to be 51 minutes away from Boise. Moving the Oregon/Idaho border is the only way to push those laws farther away from Boise... 5 hours away.
