Is it really shocking? Because it's been a consistent pattern for decades. People don't show up to the polls, and then throw tantrums at the results. It's the Portland/American way!

And who has their hand in your pocket more than your local, government, school board, fire and rescue, recreation area? Second are your state representatives, then the congress and lastly the president.

When Portland touts it's Progressiveness they really just mean LBGTQ rights and bike paths. Economically, racially, culturally and logistically there's very little that's Progressive about Portland.
