“I’d think this purple state...”
Is Tennessee going liberal? I thought the Republicans had been gaining ground there.
Tennessee has been going more and more red for the past 15 years or so. Tenncare was institued by Gov McWhorter and a Rat legislature back about then and has been a disaster ever since. When the Rats and RINO governor were trying to shove a state income tax down our throats about 10 years ago, the Rats basically opened up Tenncare as “free” medical care for anyone who wanted it to manufacture a fake crisis. At one time there were over 1.5 million people on it and it was costing the state nearly 1/3 of the annual budget. Since then the Republicans took control of the state senate and reigned in Tenncare.
