Oregon people ... (Oregoners?), read this

This is an interesting article in itself but the April deadline jumped out at me too. Get the word out.

Nonaffiliated voters must notify their counties by April 26 in order to receive an Independent Party ballot.

The Party Pickers by the numbers: 16,670 registered as Democrats, 3,200 as Republicans and 700 as Independents. Good news for Bernie Sanders....and for the Democratic Party which is seeing a registration surge greater than 2008!!!

There is a strong indy sentiment here that transcends political party lines. I think he could get that much in the general too. That's how freakin weird this season is lol
