If a picture is worth 1,000 words, these are a novel.

Biggest Winners: 7 of 10 were red (and AZ is debatable as a blue state)
Biggest Losers: 9 of 10 were blue in 2020 (and OH is the nice house in a bad neighborhood)

Well yeah, they want it like that, there are too many wasted blue votes in NY, CA, and IL…

That made a difference in GA and will do the same in NC and TX

The problem is they move to red States then vote blue.

This is one of the factors Georgia went blue.

Rampant fraud is another factor.

Unfortunately, they don't leave their absurd political beliefs that caused them to leave in the first place behind. They bring them with them to their new, more fertile feeding areas and start the process all over again. You can see it happening in parts of Texas, Tennessee, and the Carolinas. It would be happening in Florida as well but for the Governor

I have a good friend that moved to California after he graduated from LSU in 1989. Met and married a local girl and raised a family. As soon as they both got jobs that worked remotely they sold their house last year and moved to Fort Worth. They were both sick of California. Even his wife who is a native Californian.

Both are conservative and will tell you they are ashamed to tell Texans where they moved from.

Problem is the blue tards still go blue, not enough of them are red pilled and they continue to be blue tards just in a new location to destroy.

Red states lose in this scenario because those locusts who invade vote for the same shite they're running away from. Democrat voters are not capable of connecting the dots when shitty leftist policies create an environment that makes them want to leave. If they were, they wouldn't vote democrat.

Yeah this is highly problematic because these people will flee the results of their terrible voting history, and continue to vote the same way in their new red state.

It won't be long until we have soviet-style restrictions preventing moving out of your state.

Illinois has already passed a capital gains tax on real estate, if you sell home and rebuy there is no penalty, but if you do not rebuy in state, you have to pay on the gains.

This is separate from a normal fed capital gains tax and is payable even if you rebuy a home.

That is the darn truth. I grew up in GA and there was never a doubt about this state being red. I think the only election was when Jimmy Carter ran.

Sure we elected some Democrats locally, but they were what we called Dixiecrats. Much closer to Republicans than Democrats and even the RINOS we have in Congress today. Zell Miller was a Dixiecrat.

Now East Cobb, my district, formerly the district held by Newt Gingrich, was held by Lucy Mcbath for 3 terms!

As the famous Lewis Grizzard said, it's those Damn Yankees coming in here. A Yankee is one that comes for a visit goes back home, a Damn Yankee is comes here and stays! And now brings their blue votes with them!!!

Back then y’all were known as a backwater that they joked about in relation to Carter. Now the jokes are about MTG

I’d take such an influx in LA if it gave us more respect nationally
