That's a factor but it's a complex situation.
I think is has more to do with people living in blue states are migrating mostly to the Southeast to escape bad government and/or frigid climates.
Texas has probably become more blue due to businesses and the associated citizens moving from the high tax and high crime business environment in California.
The snow birds in the North have been relocating South after retirement for many years.
But yea, Caucasians are having fewer children and minorities are having more so long term this is changing the demographics in the U.S. along with 20 million illegal immigrants.

It's not just that.
There's the indoctrination in the schools.
There's the point that blue states are chasing the rats off the ship, to find more affordable living situations, and/or lower crime areas. This is on purpose.
There is social media, turning minds, as well as the MSM.
There are thousands of legal migrants coming over. Many of whom are red, but just as many who are blue.
But yes. Breeding us out is one in the list of ways they're trying to overwhelm us.

You guys can’t even enjoy yesterday intelligently by making yourself miserable over the fact that Republicans might not win every single one from here on out.
You’re as bat shite as the people melting about yesterday. Not everyone wants to frick like carp just to feel better about future elections.
I was somebody who wasn't entirely happy about the numbers. Especially locally. And how some of the ballot measures ended up.
The blue areas of our states ARE growing in numbers.
It's a valid concern. Particularly since they'll keep growing, thanks to the schools.
Vigilance.

There’s that for sure but many of those voting blue in Georgia and North Carolina are not from California.
No, they are moving down from the northeast like NYC and Baltimore...
My biological mother and her husband are die hard Dems. And NC is on their list of places to retire.

I've been beating this drum for years now: huge cities like NYC needs to become independent or city-states tending to their own affairs. Why should Chicago hold the rest of Illinois hostage? NYC loading over New York state? Mega cities weren't s thing when this country was founded.
Agreed. I've been saying this too. The massive blue capitals where the populations are so high, are a threat.
We need to institute electoral colleges at state level for local voting.

I think, in general , people gravitate towards like mined cultures. People views are also greatly influenced by where the , geography, stand. Living in downtown St Louis it was dangerous to be a republican, Lake St Louis was damn near as conservative as Branson. I don't think let progressives in Tanney county. I joke that in Ouachita Parrish, where I grew up, only Republicans could get hunting licenses.
What I've found interesting is , I employ around 50 African Americans, the women are ALL kamala and the men are 90% Trump. The truth is ,they are all fairly conservative in about 80% of their views. The women rely on social services is their concern.

This is another issue. The woke infestations of companies. Those sickos are an illness that once it starts to spread becomes malignant.
And then they gatekeep, to take over.

Outbred? Have you seen abortion numbers?
It is more of migration patterns, as certain large cities and suburbs act as a magnet to some groups.
Atlanta may as well be Wakanda to many blacks in the south, for instance.

True. Those areas are turning red. But why are the areas that have been red for many decades slowly turning blue like Georgia and Texas? I just gave the reason. We all know this should not be happening.
wtf are you talking about?
Texas, Georgia, Tenn are all more red than ever
you realize, Clinton won both Georgia and Tenn in 1992, won Tenn in 96?
when the economy is bad...people are going to vote the other way many times. this isnt hard to understand
