Discussion is healthy.

However, spamming posts will be removed. Reposts will be removed with the exception of a repost becoming the main hub for discussion on that topic.

Off topic comments that do not pertain to the post at hand may be removed if it is deemed they contribute nothing and/or foster hostility at users. This mostly applies to political and religious debate, but can be applied to other things at the mod's discretion.

Don’t resort to ad hominem attacks against another user or insult other people, examples of violations would be going after the person rather than the stance they take.

If we feel the comment is uncalled for we will remove it. Stay civil and there won't be problems.

Measure 117 would change the voting system from first-past-the-post to ranked-choice instant-runoff voting for presidential, state executive offices, and Congress.

I believe it doesn't go far enough. They should have it for Legislative Assembly elections as well. That being said, I'm still going to vote for it and tell all my friends and family to do the same.

OPB posted this two days ago and it has a lot of great info worth knowing for the upcoming election.

If approved, Measure 118 would institute a 3% tax on most corporations’ total sales in Oregon above $25 million and distribute the money equally among residents of all ages and incomes. The system would go into effect next year.

For those who don't know, Revolt is an open-source alternative to Discord, basically what Lemmy is to Reddit. It's still a bit rough around the edges, but is very accepting of feedback and emphasizes community input. One of the biggest draws is that a lot of the Discord Nitro perks (such as making custom emojis) are free there.

Sen. Brian Boquist said rules requiring him to give 12 hours notice before coming to the Capitol were retaliatory.

How do you feel about RCV compared to alternatives like STAR?

Some of the opponents reference a 2022 election in Alaska where they claim Palin caused a spoiler for the other republican, even though she got more first choice votes than he did. Ended up with democrat winning. What do you think of that situation? Is it evidence against RCV since Alaska is considered a red state?

Potentially big changes are coming to ODOT's funding model in the next few years. There are holes that the state can't patch.

Sorely needed.

100% chance that they'll still need to toll traffic to cover the remaining few billion in costs but it is a good step forward.
