It depends...   There is an invisible line running down the Cascade range;
west of it brains turn to mush. There is a fairly serious movement for the
area east of the range to secede and join Idaho.

There are a few right-minded thinkers west of the Cascades.

Like the rest of the US the large urban centers are Democratic. Go global
warming. Say a 30' rise in the sea level and the people of Portland,
Seattle, NYC, Boston, Philadelphia, LA, and so forth will be too busy
swimming to vote.

Not sure 30 vertical feet would flood all of Portland.  It is
somewhere in the vicinity of 60 miles inland.  Elevations vary,
but a lot of it is > 100' up.  Extent of flooding would depend on
the balance between rivers bringing in water from points higher
vs. the river taking water to the ocean.
