By the way, does anybody remember when the color coded states started, Pubbies were blue and libs red, but the libs objected because red stands for communism and they didn’t like the comparison so the colors were flipped.

It was sometime in the 1970s, early I think.

As a teenager I remember watching one of the elections and noticed the blue and red had be swapped.

Thank you all for your comments. Very enlightening. I couldn’t exactly remember how that came about.
