My state is safe because there's no realistic scenario in which Oregon is won by Trump except a nationwide blowout for Trump. If there was ANY chance Oregon would be a swing state, I'd vote for Biden. If every single voter thought like me it wouldn't increase Trump's odds by even a decimal point.

I realize it may feel like ~forever~ ago, but Gore beat W in Oregon by less than 7 thousand votes, a mere 0.44% of the total votes cast, because Nader siphoned off all of the people who thought “hey nbd, we’re totally safe, I can do a ‘protest vote’”

If someone in Oregon wants to meaningfully impact the presidential election, there are things we can do. We can work on GOTV efforts aimed at swing states, for example. But voting for President in a non-swing-state is symbolic, and it's a mistake to pretend otherwise.
