Her argument is that more people will move to red states as a result. I hate to break it to her, but increased population density is almost guaranteed to make states turn blue.

So by winning, Democrats are actually losing, making red states turn blue, so Democrats are winning. Suck it, commies!

Moving from blue to red again was a shock, I sure miss the quality of public services. This place is falling apart unless you live in the richest suburbs.

Moving from red to blue was a shock. Did you know blue states will actually attempt to improve citizens lives?

I live in Bumfuck, WV. Quite possibly the stupidest state in the Union. Our elected representation perfectly encapsulates the constituents of the state. Moronic, incompetent, and completely unwilling to incite change for a more prosperous future.

I fucking hate it here. I can't wait to be able to move.

Once upon a time West Virginia was Woke Virginia

I moved from blue to purple, then red, then redder. It's been an adventure.

But like ... Why would you do that?

Chasing a lower cost of living

Preach brother. Had no idea, just wanted to move. Now I'm counting the days to get out of here. More money, better public services, cleaner, and COL isn't much of an argument at this point. Although it wasn't a big deal anyway. Rent caught up quick and the only perk is a front yard and backyard I don't use except to walk the dog. Aside from that, it's clear how far a few more dollars for state taxes go. Good learning experience. Loved the people, but no thanks to climate. Political and physical.

By winning they make MAGA folks go away? Sounds like double winning to me...

Isn’t it conservatives that are leaving blue states? I know urban centers tend to be more left leaning but I don’t think those people will quickly change their views just from moving. Maybe their kids?

Independent of left and right, a higher population density naturally results in increased support for public services, which the right has decided to firmly establish themselves as being against.

Plus there's the added benefit of prejudice and racism decreasing in a more diverse community. (at least on a personal level)
