Mass legal immigration is driving Democrats towards full electoral dominance, with left-wing politicians winning nearly 90 percent of congressional districts with larger than average foreign-born populations, analysis finds. The Atlantic senior editor Ronald Brownstein analyzed Census Bureau statistics for the 2018 midterm elections, finding that the countrys admission of more than a million legal immigrants every year is set to hand over electoral dominance to House and Senate Democrats.
Among Brownsteins findings is that nearly 90 percent of House congressional districts with a foreign-born population above the national average were won by Democrats. This concludes that every congressional district with a foreign-born population exceeding 14 percent had a 90 percent chance of being controlled by Democrats and only a ten percent chance of electing a Republican.

Thank you for the map!
We’ll also gladly accept CONSERVATIVES/FReepers from blue states, as well. :-)
Not sure that they are worse off. I don’t know how many babies have died of kwashiorkor or marasmus here (too many safety nets, WIC, SNAP, etc.). The point is that they may be killing the goose that laid the golden egg.
OK, y’all, sending to wh.gov and then have to do chores. Thank you so much for your input!
I am baffled by this cave to the cheap labor express ?
The Koch Bros are hanging out at the WH now ?
What is going on here ?
And the find out the real meaning of a democrats idea of taxes.
Democrats love baby factory’s any name will do age is not important.
They do not like my email address ?
I have yet to watch the full SOTU at my leisure, but was surprised that Sinema was applauding something at some point. Apparently she got a talking to from the party brown shirts quickly...
SOME of those districts COULD be winners for conservative candidates.. but not all of them HAVE conservative candidates
alas!
Opportunity Knocks, but we have to Open the Damned Door!
(many foreigners have conservative values...they could vote this way...if reached out to... with and by conservative candidates...that cared to run...and run seriously... )
You state: “many foreigners have conservative values” but sadly that does not seem to translate very well into GOP votes. Wish it did, but in the 2016 election where there was a very clear choice, 72% of Asian Americans voted for Hillary. Not sure about Hispanics outside of Cubans...
Also, many immigrants seem to be inclined to vote for “like” immigrants—so unless it is possible to find Indian-American or Chinese-American conservatives who can run in respective districts, I don’t think districts with large numbers of legal immigrants will necessarily vote GOP since the majority seems to be supporting Dems/Big Government. Not sure how well GOP manages identity politics—and really don’t want them playing that game.
~~Chinese and Indian were ranked first and second in Legal immigration in 2017.

~~Did not find a breakout for Chinese Americans, but 72% of Asian Americans voted for Hillary. As I said, they had a clear choice and went with the big government.

~~70% of Indian Americans vote Dem.

So there may be some opportunity, but sadly, seems to be an uphill slog IMHO
Living in S. CA, my Vote was stolen years ago. After the joke of an Election last November thanks to Vote “harvesting”, I have absolutely no Representation.
One Illegal Vote is one too many because it makes mine null and void.
The question is never asked, dear Congress Critter, how are you protecting my Sovereign Vote from being neutralized by an Illegal Invader?
No kidding.
What you people need to understand is that there is fundamentally NO DIFFERENCE between legal and illegal immigration, other than the bare issue of one has a piece of paper and the other doesn’t.
They both come here largely as economic mercenaries. They both take American jobs and drive down the wage scale. They both have increasingly little reason to actually integrate and “become Americans.”
If you import the third world, you get the third world. That won’t change just because the immigrants have some piece of paper.
Indeed, in one respect, legal immigration is WORSE than illegal immigration because it puts the immigrants several steps closer to full citizenship so they can start voting for their own ethnic interests, AGAINST those of actual heritage Americans whose ancestors built this country. And that’s what they will do. Every time. In massive majorities. That’s the whole point to this thread.
Because those districts have easily manipulated absentee ballots.
See how district after district in CA flipped blue magically over days after election day.
They didn’t win the vote: they stole the vote.
uphill slog, yes .. you are correct
all i can say is that there’s a good base of conservative values and work ethic in many ‘immigrant’ districts
and
it hurts to see zero (or just obvious-loser-type GOPe) candidates in so many places
its like the McShame and Romney presidential “campaigns” (sell-outs, abdications, make sure you lose before you even try)..................
Wondering, is your map breaking down legal immigrants and illegal aliens? Or is it an aggregate for all?
Oh please
Name one
Your dreamy idealism about all peoples and cultures are I suppose relative
Is sharply disputed by fact
Asians vote democrat and by a wider margin than Latinos
Research all this a bit more
We fought this war here over a decade ago and your side lost here
Unfortunately open borders has sealed our fate
The Bush open borders begat Ocasio Cortez and all these other kooks
75 percent of non white immigrants here over five years are on govt assistance and Id imagine vote democrat

I AGREE that most foreigners are voting D
I only say that ONE REASON for this unfortunate fact is
that (often) they are given little or no real choice
