NY Times: ‘Tidal Wave’ of Mass Immigration Hands Virginia to Democrats
Breitbart ^ | 11/10/19 | John Binder

Posted on 11/10/2019 5:45:23 PM PST by david1292

A “tidal wave” of mass immigration has “tilt(ed) the field toward the Democrats” in the state of Virginia, the New York Times admits.

Last week, Democrats took control of Virginia’s House of Delegates and the State Senate. Now, the Democrats hold power over the state’s legislature, the governor’s seat and the lieutenant governor’s seat — the first time since 1993 that this has occurred.

The New York Times now admits that four to five decades of mass immigration — where about 1.2 million legal immigrants are admitted to the United States every year — has shifted Virginia into a blue state:

Not long ago, this rolling green stretch of Northern Virginia was farmland. Most people who could vote had grown up here. And when they did, they usually chose Republicans. [Emphasis added]

The fields of Loudoun County are disappearing. In their place is row upon row of cookie-cutter townhouses, clipped lawns and cul-de-sacs — a suburban landscape for as far as the eye can see. Unlike three decades ago, the residents are often from other places, like India and Korea. And when they vote, it is often for Democrats. [Emphasis added]

“It’s a totally different world,” said Charles Poland, 85, a retired history professor whose family has lived in Loudoun County for four generations. His family farm is now dotted with subdivisions filled with four and five-bedroom homes that sell for $750,000. The family legacy is a road named Poland. “If my parents came back today, they wouldn’t recognize the place. The changes came like a tidal wave.” [Emphasis added]

“Blaming this all on immigration is a cop-out. It’s not an immigration issue, it’s an education issue and the GOP has been losing that battle in every public school for decades. “

Non white immigrants are already liberal before coming to our shores. 75% or higher lean socialist. Look at the stats.

Yep, DJT is only slowing down the collapse.

I agree. America as founded is doomed. Don’t look at the people walking and driving around. Only look at the kids getting off of the school bus. That is your country. Demographics are the least understood and most lethal weapon that the enemies of the West have. England is dead. America, as founded, is on life support.

There is a ridiculous stat floating around somewhere... I wish I had kept the source. It goes something like- the average age of a white American is 57, the average age of a Mexican immigrant is 12... Grok? The 57s are soon gone, the 12’s are soon making babies.

They left because they wanted something better. It’s up to us to educate them. Instead, they slip right into a Democrat run system that enforces their beliefs.

As others have said. Rest of Middle America does not have a clue what is happening.

Oh yes we do in Chicago, where voting instructions are printed in English, Spanish, Polish, and Chinese.

For example half the voters in Kentucky voted for a governor that is part of a party that is for illegal immigration, anti Americanism and a loss of sovereignty.

Yes, they don't have a clue.

Just repeal the 19th amendment and it wouldn’t matter.

One of the main architects of Virginia’s destruction was a GOPe / RINO / Bush League congressman by the name of Tom Davis.

The immigration angle is only part of the story. I contend that Virginia would have turned into a blue state even if 100% of the population growth there over the last 30 years involved Americans and not foreigners.

URBANIZATION is a much bigger factor in these changing political trends than most people seem to realize. That’s why affluent white nitwits are just as likely to vote for Democrats as foreign-born immigrants from Third World dumps.

Yeah, there’s a lot of immigrants in Northern Virginia. No doubt. But the article did not say why the immigrants move to D.C.? It’s because of the expansion of the federal government. We need to move federal agencies out of D.C. For starters, I would relocate FBI to Kansas City. Why not have HUD in New York City?
