They may vote for it, but if they think it will happen they are fools. The Willamette Valley which is where the population is, is solidly Democratic, and money gets sent out of the valley to support the east and south sides of the state. If they think Idaho would give them all the goodies they get from the Dems in Salem, the are mistaken. Didn't these voters realize that Idaho has a $7.25 minimum wage, when rural Oregon has a $12 minimum wage. I'm sure the people in those counties are just yearning for pay cuts from $12 to $7.25 and to pay Idaho's 6% sales tax, when Oregon has no sales tax.
