Oregon voters, have you gotten your voters pamphlet yet? (The newsprint one with statements from every candidate etc) I only got the hyper local one with city council stuff, and my ballot, but I haven't gotten the big pamphlet which is kind of weird. I've gotten one for every other election since I moved here.

Got mine about a week before my ballot came. Vote by mail has me so spoiled. I can't even imagine going to the polls again.

Agreed, but also where the gently caress is my pamphlet  Honestly the pamphlet is as amazing as the mail voting, to me. Every state should do both.

They mail them ahead of the ballots, so if yours isn't there, you should probably assume it's not coming and figure out who to call about a replacement. Anecdotally there are about a hundred of them piled everywhere at the post office here, so you might be able to grab one that way

Looking at what’s left uncounted it’s mostly Multnomah and Washington county and Clackamas. Between that and late arriving ballots I think Koteck looks likely to pull it off. Unfortunately I think Gonzo gonna pull it off. Only silver lining is the charter reform also looks good so maybe we aren’t stuck with him as a power broker for the next decade plus Also I like that measure 112 is so riddled with weasel words it probably won’t actually accomplish anything

Doesn't seem more restrictive than the CA laws but admittedly I haven't thought about it too deeply. You think the permitting running through the police is the hangup?

Yeah I think that is going to be a big sticking point for this court but also I mostly just think the trend right now is to dismantle state gun regulation and just because something has survived up until now (eg CA’s law) doesn’t mean it’s not on the chopping block

Unfortunately we probably won’t know about the totals from Clackamas until late in the day. Our horseshit elections clerk decided that they wouldn’t announce totals between like 10 last night and this evening. Luckily one of the few races that is enough of a landslide to call from Clack is said horseshit clerk Sherri Hall losing to McCullen. Sadly it’s not looking good for Libra Forde but that’s not surprising despite her out-raising Savas. I think I saw like 2 or 3 total signs for her while Savas has a huge network or sign installers and hundreds of people willing to let him out a 4’x8’ sign on their property. The Clackamas County Democrats are just not as organized.

There’s enough uncounted in Multnomah and Washington counties and the margin in Clackamas isn’t dire enough as it currently stands for me to see a path forward for Drazen. Although who knows

I feel like there is a lot of smaller 75% counted counties votes going Drazen heavily that will boost her up a lot, probably enough to offset either Washington or Multnomah. Not sure if it is enough to beat both. But 20,000 votes here, 10,000 votes there adds up.

You're right in that it adds up, but you've completely forgotten that MultCo isn't done counting yet. https://www.oregonlive.com/politics/2022/11/tina-kotek-wins-oregon-governors-race-fending-off-strongest-republican-bid-in-a-decade.html Oregonian called it.

JUST MAKING CHILI posted:Dallas PD exploded a guy with a robot a few years ago, who knew that cops needed explicit authorization to do anything - they just do the thing. Yeah I think the Dallas situation is the origin, but specifically this all came about because California passed a law requiring local police departments to inventory their military style equipment and draw up regulations for its use The SF city council’s draft regulations said cops couldn’t use robots for deadly force, SFPD drew a big red line through that requirement, and it blew up from there, with the city council initially looking like they’d bend to the police until I guess probably public pressure got them to reverse

Ham Equity posted:It's just about guaranteed that the only reason the SFPD haven't used a robot to murder anyone yet is they haven't had the opportunity, and I doubt this is going to stop them when next the opportunity arises. They probably figured it wasn't worth the fight over something they're just going to do when they want to, anyway. It’s like the Washington law about high speed pursuits where they got up there and said “this law might prevent us from chasing after a kidnapper and their victim” Bullshit, everyone knows they’ll just chase whatever they want anyway and let people argue about whether the pursuit was legal after the fact

I was on i5 yesterday, police car in the lane next to me, and many laws being broken in plain view. (people generally driving like assholes, weaving between lanes at way too high speeds) They're refusing to do their jobs until we bribe them with a bigger budget and a blessing for them to be the mad max drivers.

The off-peak cruising speed of I-5 in Snohomish county is around 70+mph (80+mph in Skagit) and has been for a few years. It’s like they’ve stopped handing out speeding tickets altogether.

That's not how this works at all... you mail the ticket based on the plate, and include the photo so they can push back in the relatively rare case that someone else was driving their car. Places with traffic enforcement cameras have been doing this for ages and there is no facial recognition involved.

These tickets are funny because (at least in Oregon) they ask you to identify the driver so they can send them a ticket instead and it’s heavily implied from the way it’s written and worded that this is required but if you look closely at the fine print it’s not That said, last one I got was the red light on 99w in Sherwood, and 99% of my car was in the intersection and I thought they had a human review to prevent those ones from getting mailed out
