This is rarely a political blog. I leave it to others who do it much better. But a unique Oregon phenom is the Bus Project, which is presenting one of their periodic debates tonight. By 2015, young voters will make up a third of the electorate, if they vote. Turnout for young voters is always high, but maintaining the requisite voter registration is difficult if you are moving. The non partisan Bus Project addresses this by registering voters and making politics fun! Tonight they host a debate on Oregon's new domestic partnership law. A real debate on both sides of the issue. It is 21 and over, at Rontoms 600 E Burnside 7PM Free
