oregon is not turning republican...
these registration numbers don't translate to a republican majority.
Independents vote overwhelmingly democratic in the pacific northwest - they are secular, socially liberal, and not particularly ideological on economic/role of government questions.
Even if more registered republicans vote, they just can't outweigh the massive independent vote breaking 60% for the democrats. 2000 was as close as it was because Nader did better in OR then any other state.
