I am seeing media Republicans peeing their pants in happiness about Florida registration numbers. The people who flee the fascist states like NY tend to vote conservative. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one, if I may borrow from Palpatine.
It's all fine and well, but what did turn Colorado into California-level cesspool? Was it not the refugees from California that flocked to Denver-Boulder corridor? Same question about Phoenix and Las Vegas, which are dragging their states to the bottom. They are on the Colorado trajectory. These are just facts, not conjectures. I think it was very reasonable to Florida and Texas to follow.

@union Colorado didn't just have a reasonably free government, we also had Skiing and a lot of crunchy hippie recreational activities here. Hiking, jeeping, etc. A fair bit of our migration wasn't the conservatives fleeing, but liberals looking to go to a place that had more of their hobbies.

@union (So Texas is in less danger due to that, but more danger due to it having a lot of jobs. The jobs are what will attract liberals to places like that. Pretty much all of the leftists I know who went to Texas did so because they found jobs there.)
