Maybe I overreacted about the voter ID bullshite earlier today.



quote:

HOLY SMOKES. CNN just sounded the alarm for Democrats nationwide, confirming blue states are about to lose HUGE amounts of Electoral College votes in the 2030 census RED SEATS: +7 BLUE SEATS: -7 +14 GOP shift in the House and Electoral College! "It's not just a red state boom — it's also a BLUE STATE DEPRESSION!" ?? This shift would mean a significantly easier pathway to presidential victory for Republicans! "TEXAS, Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona — THESE were the biggest gainers in terms of population." "Lowest domestic net migration this decade, all 5 states were won by KAMALA HARRIS! California, New York, Illinois, New Jersey, Massachusetts!" "It could have MAJOR political ramifications...red states GAIN 7 seats." In due time, Democrats will FINALLY reap the consequences of their blue state policies.

If California, NY, et al would quit taxing their citizens to death and making it so hard to build housing, they might quit losing their citizens to red states. But don’t look for that to happen anytime soon.

The good news with this is, despite a lot of worries, the people who are moving out of the liberal states are moderate to conservative. Idaho did a study a couple of years ago and found around 75-80% self identified as conservative or republican.

Georgia, North Carolina, and Arizona aren’t exactly deep red states. Georgia has 2 Democrat Senators and Arizona has 2 Democrat Senators and a Governor that is a Democrat. NC’s governor is a Democrat

Georgia is a swing state

You can say Trump was cheated in 2020 in Georgia, but it was still close. In 2008 Obama got 47% of the vote. In 2016 and 2024 Trump didn’t get over 51% of the vote.

If republicans an conservatives don’t show up in these midterms the Dems will take control and manipulate the census or eliminate the electoral congress. They understand the need to win this election and are activating behind the scenes.

3 of those 3 states are purple states North Carolina , Georgia and Arizona . If it’s democrats moving to those states they could flip the states. We need a strong republican in charge for the next census to scare the illegals away from filling it out . That could swing a lot for the republicans.

Who's to say they don't turn a few red states blue? Colorado was once red.

Georgia is quickly becoming a blue state. I know it sucks and you hate it but it's the damn truth. What's even scarier is that Texas is becoming a blue state due to all the middle eastern illegals that are there now.

Truth. No longer a purple state unfortunately. In Colorado Springs, we're the last holdouts.

Won't matter if they find a way to get President Newsom in 2028. We won't last until 2030.

This won’t mean a thing if they ever get control again. They will not relinquish it.

“Georgia, North Carolina, and Arizona aren’t exactly deep red states.”

You make a good point, but unless these states turn reliably blue, this means that the Democrats will have fewer routes to a an EC win, with the GOP not as hampered by the mammoth safe states of CA and NY.

Now pair that with needing to recalibrate 2020's because it was as fricked up with fraud as the election.

And deport a jillion illegals.
