“I would suspect that millions of New Yorkers are glad to see this “evil” company out of their state.”
You may be somewhat correct, however very very few of those millions live within 200 miles of the factory.
There are two New Yorks.
There is New York State north of Westchester county (Which is the vast majority of the land and is primarily “red”) and there is everything south of and including Westchester which is primarily “blue”. This would include NYC and Long Island. That very small area of the state contains the vast majority of the population, and they are by and large rabidly liberal and are the reason NY is in the toilet.
But the people who live around Remington, which is a few hundred miles from NYC, are NOT supporters of Little Andy Cuomo and it is unlikely many of them voted for the puke.
And they don’t deserve this.
So correct. No to the safe act signs are all over upstate
They probably don't deserve it. The thing to remember is that Remington isn't the perpetrator - it's Cuomo and his cronies.
Even in upstate NY there are far too many who still vote Dem because they are blue collar union types who believe Dems are for the little guy and Reps are just mean and greedy.
Michigan is much the same. get away from Wayne county (read: Detroit) and the state is largely conservative. But the flaming blue libs in Detroit and suburbs make it look like Michigan is a blue state.

Solution for Upstate NY: De-annex NYC. Fumigate Albany
(I’d say “secede”, but then folks might accuse y’all of being a bunch of “racist rednecks”.)
Ilion’s district sent a Democrat to the US House. They should have thought of this before pulling the big D lever.
