Oregon has been a blue state over recent years, as it has voted for the Democratic Party in every presidential election since 1988 and Democrats have won every statewide election held after 2002. However, in 2000, Gore won by a small margin, partly because of a strong showing by Ralph Nader. Over the next two election cycles, the state would trend Democratic. Almost eighty percent of registered voters came out to vote on election day, the highest in the country. This marks the last time in which the margin of victory in Oregon was within a fraction of a percent, as Democrats would win the state by decent margins since. This is also the last time as of 2016 that the Democrats failed to win a majority in Oregon, while the state would also vote more Republican than the nation as a whole.

gollark: Arch Linux (by the way).
gollark: Depending on how highly efficient™ the company is, that or just replace the entire board.
gollark: Anyway, what do the wise people of this channel think I should do regarding this? I can probably:- ignore the hypothetical capacitor and hope it hypothetically exploding is not important and has not caused/will not cause other damage- send it in for repair under the standard warranty and suffer for some time- upgrade the warranty (fairly cheap) for onsite support, somehow resolve logistical issues surrounding this, and have it maybe get fixed- borrow equipment from somewhere to attempt repairs myself
gollark: The "Ackerman routing protocol" was entirely made up, so yes, that is to be expected.
gollark: (this is over *LAN*; powerline adapters over really bad wiring or something)
