All this is doing is making red/reddish states redder.
And blue states bluer.
We’ll have to see what happens over the next few years as even more democrats flee blue states for red states. Right now, it appears the trend is heavily conservative leaving blue states for red states. It does seem that democrats are beginning to flee in larger numbers because of the messes they have made. We will see if their impact on red states will infect them with the liberal cancer. It’s just stupid that they vote for all this garbage that ruins everything and then move somewhere else and create the same mess. Like, isn’t this why you left? Haven’t you learned anything?

You would be right, AZ is more red than the last time registered voters were counted. Dems are now 3rd behind Independents.

Rep-35.07%
Ind-34.1%
Dem-29.36%

That's why AZ was one of 7 states that had fake completed ballots and no signature verification in 2020.

Yes, that is true, but the red stronghold is from the 90’s - we have gains and losses, but they have prevailed. Now for the general elections - the numbers don’t matter, as not everyone votes by party and the non-party voters are a toss up.

Since then, the number of Democrats in both chambers have continued to drop. The Florida Legislature became the first legislature in any of the states of the former Confederacy to come under complete Republican control when the Republicans gained control of the House and Senate in the 1996 election.

But is it truly turning solid red or are (D)s playing games by registering as (R)s so that they can throw the Primaries.

If politics matter that much to you why not move to a state controlled by your party ?

While I don't vote Republican/Democrat for national elections, on the state level I prefer conservative Republican states as they keep spending low and taxes low and that directly affects my wallet.
