True. But the demographics have changed with a tsunami tide of illegals voting. Reagan even carried California.

We have brought in 35 million LEGAL PERMANENT IMMIGRANTS since 1990. It is legal immigration that is killing the Reps. 87% of the 1.1 million legal immigrants we take in annually are minorities as classified by the USG. Immigrants and minorities vote more than two to one Dem.

It is ridiculous to say that the illegals are the difference. Every year we bring in hundreds of thousands of future Dem voters through LEGAL IMMIGRATION. By 2019 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities. Each cohort that turns 18 is more Dem than the previous one. By 2043 half of the country will be minorities. The focus should be on reducing legal immigration. Demography is destiny.

Legal immigrants should be admitted based on skills & wealth. That is what countries like New Zealand and Australia are doing. Currently it is mostly relatives coming in. What is really terrible is that the sponsoring relative is not held accountable to support the new immigrant financially.

I personally know relatives of doctors practicing in US brought in as legal immigrants and promptly placed on government benefits.
