Yes, we really worry about that. It’s happening in Texas. It happened in NM. It happened in CO. It’s happening in AZ. It happened in WA and OR. It is happening in WY, particularly at Jackson. It is happening all over the once-free West. Idaho still seems to be at the end of the earth as far as liberals are concerned and somewhat off the beaten track.
Idaho is the seventh most conservative state (I was very surprised to learn it is not in the top 3 most conservative). The Californians have moved into Ketchum / Sun Valley and have made Blaine County a Democrat stronghold in the state.
My wife and I are doing our part to dispel the myth of the “insane libs from California ruining our state.” I don’t think it will happen in our remaining time on God’s Green Earth (probably 20 years if we are lucky).
Interesting synopsis.
It seems Boise is somewhat liberal too with Chobani plant there and all the immigrants, etc.
I live in IL—DuPage County— used to be one of themost Republican Counties in the Country...It went to Hillary past election due to influx of Chicago dems—I don’t think it was a grand plan—just people looking for a better place to raise a family after they screw up the city ;(. My Congresscritter is supposedly a conservative—so he says, but I think he is a moderate at best.
Good luck with Idaho—you will have to tell me how you like living there*~I am looking for a good retirement spot :)

Nevada is being flooded with escapees from LA. ( to Vegas). Wyoming ( excepting the Jerk Hole resort of course) seems reasonably conservative still. Only one very small country voted for The Bitch — what do you think are sanest best places ?
