Move to TX. Act like a conservative and help keep TX from turning blue.

This article suggests that the Democrat-controlled state legislature will most likely eliminate a Long-Island district now represented by a pro-Trump conservative Republican.

Minnesota is expected to lose one seat too.

Given that Dem-appointed state judges usually end up doing the redistricting, I can easily see them try to combine as many of the 4 GOP rural districts together instead of trying to combine the 4 Dem urban/suburban seats together.

In short, we end up losing a GOP seat.

that depends on who is moving and what there intentions are.

You are certainly correct about that. But in my circle, all solid conservatives, the rationale for considering moving is well understood: they are looking for lower taxes, less crime and better politics. Although liberals may not not understand their motivation as well as you and I it will be, in the end, the same. They are being pushed by the same forces.

Hopefully. But no guarantees sad to say.

I may well, surprisingly, the way is being cleared. But I think we all have value in every state we are in.

It’s like a war. We need the marines and we need the medics and we need guys in the trenches on that front and guys just holding a border over there. We need guys in the air and we need the people who mend the uniforms and etc. we are all needed everywhere. I am not useless here.

It’s good to be where you are happy. Happy warriors are the most effective.

Very happy to see this!!!

I’ve lived in NY all my life. My wife and I refused to fill out the census, despite several visits to my front door, and I lobbied like minded conservatives around me to do the same- don’t fill out the census- so the state loses benefits. Any benefits we would have gained through the census would have gone to illegals anyway.
