“if you isolate Chicago, the rest of the State isn’t that liberal....”
....your point is well taken....same thing goes on in Maryland where the large urban vote overwhelms the rest of the state....this is going on all across the country and the big cities look more and more like street scenes out of “Blade Runner”....and the Dems know this, and haul the urban masses to the polls to stay in power.
“if you isolate Chicago, the rest of the State isn’t that liberal....”
“if you isolate Detroit, the rest of the State isn’t that liberal....”
“if you isolate Madison, the rest of the State isn’t that liberal....”
“if you isolate Minneapolis/St Paul, the rest of the State isn’t that liberal....”
See a pattern?
Cities are also trying to do a shared governance with the counties to capture the people that are leaving the city limits to get out to the ‘burbs and beyond. And with the exodus of the people goes the tax bucks — that is a huge problem for the communists so they are trying to usurp entire counties/metro areas to pay for their “compassion”.
