SHHH. Can you hear it? Oregon is voting. And even though the Democratic nomination may end up being decided in great part by our votes here in the Beaver State, it remains a rather subtle event by all appearances.
Yes, amidst all the online chatter, behind all the headlines, going on without much fanfare at all, we are voting. In Oregon, this means that ballots are arriving and ballots are being filled in and mailed back. There are no precinct polling locations, there are no lines, there is no hush on the street as the devoted disciples of Democracy make the trek to a gymnasium or some other building to draw back a curtain, pull a lever, or touch a screen. There are, instead, the warnings not to use black pen (the ink contains traces of the color red, which the tallying machines cannot read) nor blue pen (which has been known to cause problems with the machines as well) but instead, the true and trusty pencil.

Diary of A Citizen Journalist: Shooting the Obama Trilogy
THE LINE AROUND THE BLOCK took us by surprise. We had heard the buzz over Senator's Obama's arrival building in the last day or so, even though only two days notice were given before he came to Eugene, Oregon to speak at McArthur Court or "The Pit" as it is known to locals.
Still, we hadn't expected the turnout or the speed with which it would, well—turn out!
A Quickly-Growing Line and a Quickly-Made Decision
One of the things that stands out regarding Senator Obama's campaign is its ability to draw massive crowds wherever the campaign touches down. Oregon has proven to be no exception.

Peep through the Lens O' Nez and once again, enter "The Pit" in Eugene, Oregon—which is really not as gruesome as the name might sound, but instead a rather invigorating and some might even venture, rousing venue.
Part One here. Part Three soon to come.
