Description
A cultural and political dispute is unfolding in Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. While many eastern Oregonians feel a series of mountains in the Rockies that mark the state's border with Idaho is no longer relevant, many voters out in the rural east are tired of what they describe as feeling dispossessed by the urban elite who live along the Pacific coast. A radical solution has been brewing: to move the Idaho-Oregon border to the west and create a "Greater Idaho" encompassing half of present-day Oregon. Of 15 counties in eastern Oregon, 11 have already voted to require local officials to discuss the plan. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES N°33F66TN
