Never going to happen no matter how many dreams they come up with. Part of the problem is the included the Bend, Sisters, Redmond area into their map and those areas are more blue than red these days... besides, all the bureaucracy and additional governance that would result would be more than what these people who are putting this out there realize....
There will always be dreamers, but this is never going to happen in many lifetimes.....
Look closer. The map excludes Bend and Sister. Redmond is in it.
