They vote the same way every election and always expect a different outcome.

Will voters there ever learn?

The fact that they're leaving suggests they have learned they don't like what they're experiencing.

The problem obviously is so many don't associate their voting history with the results they're experiencing. Like a horde of locusts moving along, leaving devastation in their wake.

Question: Do the owners of the burnt down homes in the Palisades get a revised lower property tax bill? If not, it would be a no brainer to sell the lot to a hedge fund and say bye bye CA.

Deep State doesn’t care.

Wanna save your state, California?

Run MAGA candidates for every office, in every primary.

And secure your damned elections.

It’s easier for ‘em to just move and suck up the fruits of the states that put in the hard work to make sure they didn’t turn in to sht holes like california.

Quite the exodus, Nation-Wide.

The cancer will just spread. These people will bring their Socialist VOTING RECORDS with them, and they usually don’t turn into Conservatives overnight.

They’ll just move to a lesser Socialist Enclave from the one they came from and continue to ruin it further.

‘The People’s Republic of Madistan’ (WI) comes immediately to mind. :(

I’m seeing my own California neighborhood clearing out - for Florida, Texas and Tennessee.

Homes are being bought up for cash by corporations who drop two or three ADU’s on the property - and voila, now they’re all rentals... very expensive rentals.

2019, retired, left San Diego 30 years after arriving from Dallas. Crossing back over the Colorado River at Yuma was a great feeling.

Look for the “Leave California Tax” to rise exponentially as the exodus continues. The funny thing is that Covid chaos and its “remote work” policies are the great destroyer of centrally located workplaces. That which they wished for is that which they got. Good and hard, too.

It will really be interesting to see how Gavin Newsom runs for president on his record in California. The state is a disaster due to both him and the years of Democrat rule who came before him. All the way into the early 1990s, it was the Golden State. And the Dems destroyed it. Now anyone who makes money is fleeing and they will be left with a bunch of people with their hands out for government payments that cannot be funded.

“They vote the same way every election and always expect a different outcome.”

They may not even expect a different outcome. Their hatred is stronger than their common sense.

Doesn’t matter, all that matters is that “D” next to the name.

That’s why Kamala still almost one. And if Newsom is marginally better, he wins.

The voters have learned.

The majority are takers and eaters and leeches. They vote to take.

The producers are fleeing.

Article once again makes the huge assumption that California's election totals represent an accurate canvass of ballots cast.

“...and voila, now they’re all rentals... very expensive rentals”

That’s the best solution. I bet they fill up.

Yes they do and they get to keep the old rate if they rebuild. If they are long time residents, they probably don't have much of a property tax bill anyway. The problem is people may not be able to afford to wait for a new house to be rebuilt and the cost of bringing it up to current code.

It’s no wonder so many Californians are calling it quits
and moving to states that don’t treat them like serfs.

++++++++++

The question becomes can they help the new locations
to maintain a liveable location for others as they keep
coming in? Huminoids are consumers and at times don’t
help keep up with the needs of others. Three score and
ten then move on down the line with some type after death
process. At least cremation reduces space needs some.

It looks like people are leaving the most crowded places, including my state. I’m fine with this.
