Yes, but blue people added to so called “red” states turns them purple. There is no such thing as a permanently “red” or “blue” state.
Wish these youngins would realize that NYC saw its biggest populations losses between 1945 and 1980 - this is a pittance compared to then.
True, states can change their political leanings.
It’s hard to believe now, but Ronald Reagan was governor of California. California, the most liberal state of all nowadays, gave us Ronald Reagan.
Conversely, Texas gave us a good liberal in Lyndon Johnson. Texas, along with many southern states, used to be solidly Democratic.
That’s all part of the plan. They are pushing people to come to AL (Huntsville) as well.
older democrats ought to get out more or watch the news!
I have folks like this in my family....they put blinders on to all the social rot and think “rich” people are evil.
Not Nancy Pelosi though, she’s different!
They are among us! I can tell they are not from here. My red state is being invaded by vermin from the sewers of rat-blue areas.
And the Sun Belt losing because all the big city liberals will be bringing their liberal poison with them.
Liberals leaving liberal sh!tholes and then voting like liberals.
Yeah, I think we need to secede. The USA experiment is over in my opinion.
Oh yeah, that will improve her quality of life. /s
The Texas Public Policy Foundation has conducted two polls of registered voters to test attitudes between natives and non-natives. Its January 2020 poll of 800 registered voters found native Texans supported President Trump over Hillary Clinton by a 7-point margin compared to transplants, who supported Trump by a 12-point margin.
From February to May 2021, TPPF partnered with polling firm WPA Intelligence, asking 3,228 Texas voters if they were born in Texas or moved here and, if they moved to Texas, from where did they move? TPPF polled 1,284 (40 percent) people who moved to Texas and 1,944 (60 percent) who were born in Texas. This ratio reflects the composition of Texas voters who are natives versus non-natives.
Among domestic migrants to Texas, Trump was most heavily favored by arrivals from the Mountain West, where Trump enjoyed a plus 13-point margin over the support of native Texans followed by the four-state region of Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee with a plus-8 advantage. Counterintuitively — at least among Texans with an opinion — the area with the third-highest support for Trump among movers was California, where movers were 5 percent more likely to have supported Trump than were natives.
So she just moved from one sh*thole to another sh*thole. At least that doesn't matter at election time, as both places are totally blue.
That’s quite a claim!
Yep, lost over 1MM residents between 1970 and 1985 alone.
I don’t mind them leaving, but I don’t want them in my state or anywhere near me. If they want to move then they can go to some other liberal crap hole. Yeah, let “Ko” move to Seattle...more leftists added to the already lost mix....
My children saw the indoctrination in college 20 years ago and both remain conservatives who prefer to live by the Constitution. All my teenage grand-kids understand what grooming is and we talk daily what was taught at school. One told me last fall the band teacher is gay but just teaches music, and does not mentioned her personal life. That said, I have more nephews and nieces that are happy to vacation in Cuba. Well they all went once and missed internet and paying in cash for everything kind of spoiled that. I just wanted to add there are some exceptions and some hope.
