We’ve got a good secretary of state and attorney general who have actually gotten fraud convictions against democrat vote fraudsters. That makes them a little leery of taking the risk.
The funny thing is that Mitt Romney himself struggled against the much more conservative Santorum and only pulled out a tie here. In 08 Romney beat McCain here by about 10%. In fact if you look back to 04 the spread between Kerry and Bush was only 4 or 5 percent.
The state is becoming more conservative with every passing year. Instate politics have grown more conservative as well.
By God, cripple, I hope you are correct!
My hometown of Holland was as conservative as it gets...I hope the rest of the state follows suit.
That said, I left anyway.... :)
