We left Texas eight years ago due mainly to the steady, overwhelming influx of illegals. We may need to think about going back. Here in MO the Dems have a stronghold in the north part of the state. Here in the southwest portion it is very conservative. Not too sure what direction MO would go.
I guess we could get back in! I am sixth generation Texan, born in Waco. Hope my citizenship is still valid.
Texas will turn blue before it becomes an independent nation. Two or three more election cycles should do it I think.
The are 3 centers of liberalism in MO, and I wouldn’t necessarily categorize any as north since they are all about midway between north and south. StL, KC and Columbia are the only red spots on the MO map,and get very far outside any of them and it gets conservative fast. If the last few elections are any indicator, the state as a whole is moving solidly to the right.
