“Doug Schoen: Democrats face trouble from population losses in high-tax blue states”
Don’t worry Dougie..they are F ing up normal states.
Problem is that they go to good states and start polluting the voting pool.
“Consequently, the partys overall national perception among voters, specifically with regard to economic policy, should be a primary focus for the Democratic Party.”
Democrats could give a rip about economic policy. All they care about is how much is the welfare payment.
This is actually disturbing. A seemingly minor population shift of brain dead liberals to states Republican candidates win narrowly tilts the whole board back to the blue. We’ve already seen it in Virginia, North Carolina and Colorado.
Wishful thinking, Judy! They never discern cause and effect.
Idiot. It is not the liberals that are fleeing the high tax blue states. It is the conservatives and independents.
Yup. They will flee the Blue state for a Red state. But, after a few months of feeling “secure”, they will revert to their old voting habits
I took that a step further. Make Canada home of the libs, America home of the conservatives. I’d be happy to move and there’s fewer of us up here....let’s watch the libs tax their own to poverty and the conservatives thrive in safe, clean, friendly surroundings. May the best land win.
Beat you by 27 years Judy.
Story of my life :)
South FL is a Yankee colony.
The Panhandle saved the state for Donald Trump.
Not so long ago the state of Florida was hard core red but the influx of northern liberals has turned it purple, tending toward blue.
Like every other state, the cities are solid democrat.
And in Florida, as in most of the south, the cities are growing in population (more democrat voters) and dominating the conservative outlying suburbs and rural areas at the ballot box.
Thats why theyre legalizing marijuana.
Thats a good point. There does seem to be a connection. Of course, states would never ever admit that their tax policies are what is bankrupting them and driving away residents, and in fact they double down - such as when the Dems in NY proposed that people moving out of the state would have to pay a 50% tax on ASSETS! Fortunately, that was so clearly unconstitutional that they gave up, but it shows you the authoritarian stupidity of their dinosaur brains.
Yep, apparently they are too stupid to understand what caused the problems in the first place. They will move to new areas and vote Democrat.
I think they face problems, because there’s only so much full on idiocy that the public can pass off.
At some point it became so obvious the Left hated our nation, that folks couldn’t ignore it any longer, and are now beginning to resent it big-time.
Trump has put his laser focus on our problems, and he’s simply making more sense to the public than the folks on the Left who seem like they just escaped an asylum.
If they think they aren’t turning off Democrats by their actions in Portland and across the nation, they’re sadly mistaken.
Trump is gaining a lost of support right now.
Hopefully all of the crazies will remain in their homeland
