Democrats have been trying to win Arizona for several election cycles, convinced that the growing Latino vote would turn the state blue. But in an election where Republicans grew among Latinos, migration from blue states was a major factor.
That’s the analysis floated by Gene Balk at the Seattle Times, who notes that “priced-out California liberals” have moved to Arizona in large numbers, and migration from Washington State — another liberal stronghold — was second-highest.
I looked at census data on state-to-state migration and found that since the 2016 election — from 2017 to 2019 — about 150,000 Californians who are eligible to vote (U.S. citizens, age 18 and older) moved to Arizona. While the data doesn’t tell us anything about the political affiliations of the those movers, California is, of course, one of the bluest states.
But guess which other very-blue state ranks No. 2 after California for sending expats into Arizona. That’s right: Washington.
…
From 2017 to 2019, 43,000 voting-eligible Washingtonians made the move south. While that number can’t compare with California, it’s still surprisingly large.
…
Keep in mind that Biden defeated Trump in Arizona by a margin of about 10,500 votes, so those 43,000 ex-Washingtonians certainly could have made a difference.
Two “red” states also sent large numbers of migrants into Arizona. Texas was third, after Washington, with 37,435 migrants. Utah was tenth, with 17,398.

Probably.....yet another example of libs fleeing the shitholes they create to infest and contaminate their new state
Cheating helps turn states blue too.
There will only be a couple of red states in ten years...
I live SW Florida and they cannot build houses fast enough for the fools fleeing democrat states..
Have a family just moved from Seattle...
Most will probably vote democrat???
If AZ is ‘flipped’ it is due to the green button and bundling ‘provisional’ ballots to assign them to biden. The forced use of the Sharpie created tens of thousands of ‘provisional ballots’, by seditious design.
It helped but I still think election fraud puts Arizona over the commie edge. I know a lot of Arizonans disagree with me.
Locusts through a wheat field
People just don’t want to admit the dems have cheated.......
My SIL is a builder in the Tampa area...told me Democrat scum are pouring in.
They flee the ruinous policies they enacted in their own states to reenact them in the next.
Cheating included!
Jacksonville is expanding fast as well.
Out of staters flipped Colorado blue a long time ago. Californians are moving to Idaho. Most in Hollywood keep homes in Atlanta as well, the new filming capitol of the country. All those rockstars that used to live in L.A. have moved to Nashville. California liberals turned their country into a third world sh*thole and now they're fleeing, thinking their ideas will work better somewhere else.
Both can be true. Fact is, demographics are killing us even without the vote fraud. You just have to look around and you can see it with your own eyes.
I, personally, don’t believe this story. I think it is idiotic to speculate about the Arizona 2020 elections when they were run by a Antifa-level Democrat Secretary of State. I think proof of corruption is apparent in FAUX news wildly early call of the election. Who is investigating? Crickets.
My own parents fled California for Arizona, and they are as Conservative and pro-Trump as any. They seem to believe the “blueing” of their state, too.
For myself, though, it is easier to see Conservatives fleeing California, and that this discussion is just cover for corruption in the state electoral process which needs to be addressed.
I have no doubt that the fingerprints of not-dead-soon-enough McCain are all over a lot of the corruption, too.
I still think the big problem was the GOP-E in Arizona, which hates Trump and often votes for democrats over a conservative republican. The Cheap Labor Express. The McCain “We want trade with China and we’ll sell out the USA to get it!” crowd.
And Biden & Kelly were running ads 20:1 compared to Trump and McSally. They had so much $$$$ for ads that they didn’t know what to do with it all! And I noticed not a single ad of Mark Kelly EVER mentioned he’s a democrat. He also ran as a strong supporter of gun rights even though he’s run a foundation dedicated to taking guns away.
But with the enormous advertising advantage, I’d bet the average Arizonan believes Mark Kelly will support gun rights!
Without Dominion software shifting millions of votes, the communists and globalists are spit in a bucket small voting blocks.
The Latino shift alone over whelmed all import votes.
I think there is something to the common belief that people fleeing the messed up states they helped to create have made Arizona more blue. I think, however, based on the evident enthusiastic support Trump has here, that it is not yet blue. It is evident that the results of the recent vote here was due to the entrenched RINO/McCain establishment and the same type of cheating that went on in other states. We need to clean our bureaucratic house of dead and rotten wood, and turn around our election procedures, much like Florida did after their embarrassing 2001 election. Where elections are fair, Conservatives can prevail.
We need to put up signs: liberal refugees, don’t vote for what you fled.
