Voters in five Oregon counties this year will vote on initiatives that could serve as the first steps in a longshot bid to eventually re-draw the borders of three states, including parts of Northern California in a move meant to join with the more politically conservative Idaho.

Move Oregon’s Border — an organization promoting the “Greater Idaho” movement of having Oregon’s conservative counties join Idaho — announced Sunday that initiatives to relocate the Oregon-Idaho border “to make both states better” will appear on ballots in five Oregon counties on May 18.
