I am tracking Oregon ballot returns, but avoiding reading anything into them. Those who have voted were almost certain to anyway. Ages and vote history of voters who have returned ballots. Dems -Age 65+: 65% -Voted 8 of 8 of the past 8 primaries and generals: 53% -6+ of 8: 78%

Agree with Kevin. Whether Oregon--or Texas, Wisconsin, etc.--allow data centers or not we will still have to make decisions about our relationships with AI.
As state legislative sessions near, the bills that get the most headlines will likely deal w/ frontier issues. But we ought to pay attention to "boring" AI topics, too. Here's a smattering of policies expected by Oregonians, for example. via DHM Research.
