Texas : Socially/ Fiscally conservative

California: Socially/Fiscally liberal

New York : Socially liberal /Fiscally Conservative ie Nirvana

Louisiana: Socially conservative/ Fiscally liberal.

All states usually fall into one of these 4 categories. Please feel free to comment.

It should be noted that a states alignment may not always match its political spectrum due to factions in that state.

Tennessee may be the most socially conservative state in the entire union. Fiscally, the state has been governed fairly responsibly since Bredeson and the legislature "fixed" Medicaid.

The way that Dallas is growing with many transplants, it’s not inconceivable.

I know a lot of very conservative California people who are in Dallas to escape liberal California. I think it's wrong to assume that a majority of transplants here are liberal.

ETA: It really surprised me at first, but most of them are more conservative than my southern friends. These guys are all from SoCal fyi.
