If I had to live in a blue state, I found my city.

Spokane, WA

Spokane County went 51-46 Trump in last election.

This looks like a nice place to live. Beautiful city and surrounding area. Home of Craig T. Nelson.

Any posters from the area??

There are at least a handful of decent cities in blue states that aren't as blue as the rest of the state.

Although since in a lot of these areas it's approximately 50/50 I don't think it's worth caring about that much unless it's an extremely blue city

i.e. if Spokane was 51-46 dem it wouldn't be much different than it is now

I know some people that live there and they love it

I’m not from there but WA was added to my territory and am looking forward to seeing Spokane.

If the state had their way they would ban guns.

And you’d be living there.

Still a blue state with blue laws and blue reps.

As expected, Kamala Harris comfortably won Washington state. While Trump improved his margin in all fifty states, Washington had the smallest swing to the right, with Trump improving his margin by less than 1%, compared to the national swing of about 6%.

Looks like a beautiful, clean, safe place.

The racial makeup of the city was 80.7% White, 2.9% some other race, 2.5% Black or African American, 2.0% Asian, 0.8% Native American or Alaskan Native, and 0.5% Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, with 10.5% from two or more races


Oh.

Besides their anti-gun laws recently, Washington is a real solid blue state choice

By land area, most of Washington and Oregon is MAGA.

Worked in the area a few years ago. It is beautiful. But with their lax drug laws/enforcement they seemed to have a lot of blue state issues.

Owned property about an hour from it. I always liked it but those pics represent more sun than I’ve seen there over the past 20 years.

True, and it would suck to be controlled by a leftist state govt... but living in a place like Spokane or Redding, CA as mentioned, among the local people would feel okay.

Heck, my current county, Forsyth County, in NC went 55-42 kamala.. I live in a nice, small town surrounded by Greensboro, Winston, and High Point. Lots of blue people around me.

and probably CA too. 6M+ MAGAs there still even after the exodus of CA over the past several years

eta yep, CA too. Once you get off the coast of CA, WA, OR it’s all MAGA country out there
