With a five point edge in voting, how the hell did we barely win?

The only explanation is Dems engaging in favorable redistricting and then projecting and howling like banshees….

What exactly accounts for the incredibly consistent divide between urban and rural?

I bet Act Blue and Bend the Arc put a lot of money in mail-in ballot harvesting in about 25 Congressional districts like in Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, California, Washington, and New Mexico.

All these states are Democrat so their career bureaucrats and Secretary of States are going to at least look the other way, if not help with the cheating.

It is very understandable; look at how well Matt Gaetz did in my district. His opponent was a COVID whistleblower who claimed DaSantis was covering up COVID deaths.

Then look at how one district in Connecticut was barely won by a Democrat incumbent. I think the last time a Republican was in that Connecticut congressional district was 2002 and it was Nancy Johnson.

Because when you have kids you gtfo of the cities. And once you have to literally stare in the face the impact of your values reflected in your kids, you get a lot more conservative.

In population terms at least, red America is now growing far more rapidly than blue America. And this makes it more important politically. Since 1990, Texas has gained eight congressional seats, Florida five and Arizona three. In contrast, New York has lost five, Pennsylvania four and Illinois three. California, which now suffers higher net outbound-migration rates than most Rustbelt states, lost a congressional seat in 2020 for the first time in its history.

This decline in blue America has accelerated since the pandemic, due to rising crime and the availability of remote work. Last year, New York, California and Illinois lost more people to outbound migration than all other states. Demographer Wendell Cox notes that the largest percentage loss of residents has occurred in big core cities such as New York City, Chicago and San Francisco. In contrast, population burgeoned in sprawling areas such as Phoenix, Dallas and Orlando.

The future of the GOP depends on the continued growth of such places, as well as the growth of suburbia nationwide. Between 2010 and 2020, 51 major metropolitan areas lost 2.7million net domestic migrants from their most central counties, while suburban counties gained two million people. The Midterms show that Republicans are gaining ground in these largely suburban areas – particularly in Florida, as well as suburban Phoenix, the outskirts of Atlanta, the Houston exurbs, largely suburban Nashville, the sprawling Virginia Beach area and suburban Detroit. Democrats, where they made gains yesterday, tended to be in places like California, where the Republican Party has all but ceased to exist.

Whether Democrats like it or not, these red-leaning places, not California or New York, are where more Americans plan to settle and start families.


This seems to support your argument @pudil

Been pitching it for a while now. And not red areas specifically though they almost exclusively lean red. Get rural and get there quick. It's not perfect, but if you're social and can meet people it's the best thing going. People in town call me by my name and I've never met them.

Easier with kids, but go rural and be involved. Wife is in St. Louis currently. I had no idea who was getting my kid from basketball practice. Wasn't gonna be me. One of the other mom's got him. I drove her kid home last night from the game. Having lived in Chicago and a yuppie suburb (Geneva) I'll never go back. Community matters. Even my liberal neighbors are right of center by todays standards. We can agree to disagree, have a beer and not have it be a hissy fit. I have no clue how you city folks do it or put up with it.

Watch Hunger Games.

The people who work with their hands vs the folly of people who have basically stolen the fruits of that labor.
