How does a state flee a party?

when people of that party flee the state ? Like in California and New York (losing House seats ?)

Demoncrats losing in the Rio Grande Valley is yuuuuuge.

McAllen Texas used to be so reliably democrat that the communist democrats looked to that city to justify believing that Texas was on the verge of turning blue. Now they flipped and have a republican city government.

When some poor person making a pittance like 60 grand runs they will get my vote even if they are a felon.

One facet of their identity politics that Democrats thought they had wrapped up, was the Hispanic vote. Looks like Joe Biden might have miscalculated. The chaos he has created at the Mexican border is taking its toll, and Hispanics living there are not liking it. In McAllen, Texas—a border town that went for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump by 40 points in 2016—just elected a Republican mayor. McAllen is 85% Hispanic.

The times they are a'changin.

With the major influx of migrants, could be the Hispanic Americans in McAllen have gotten a view of what Trump said about illegal immigration, back in 2016. "They're bringing crime. They're bringing drugs. They're rapists."

Hispanics don’t like faggotry and all this transgender shit Dems are pushing. You think they want their daughters sharing locker rooms with these sexual deviants?

One only needs to look at the Miami/Dade region in Florida to the shift. THE big Dem stronghold in Florida. Hillary won that area by over 20 points in 2016. The edge fell to about 8-9% in 2020. Hispanics (and especially the Cubans) are breaking towards Republicans.

Of course they wouldn't vote for a communist. That's why they are attracted to him.
Where as trump attempts to put up a wall as an effort promote peace. Little wonder they threw th e idiot out.

They are also staunchly religious in contrast to the current makeup of the Democrat party (8-to-9 out of 10 people in South and Central America are Catholic, whereas the vast majority of modern Democrats either self-identify as non-religious, or they're "lapsed Catholics" etc) -- to that end, the people of Catholic faith from that part of the world find the very concept of abortion to be utterly reprehensible and an eternal sin.

The Democrats are so used to categorizing everyone under their "big tent" by whatever victim role they assigned them and giving it no further thought, that they're completely incapable of recognizing that their in-your-face virtue signaling to appease one of their whacko fringe groups directly conflicts with the religious/moral tenets of the people in their coveted immigrant voting block. But that would require Democrat politicians to have a modicum of integrity and a basic familiarity with those religious principles -- which to Democrats, are the equivalent of garlic & sunlight to a vampire.

What are you talking about.....his effort to put up a wall was not to promote peace dumbass....it was to prevent the invasion of uncontrolled and catastrophic population shift which is absolutely no way to promote peace. Those being kept out are not going to feel peaceful....neither is a bank robber who gets caught in the commission of his crime...he is also not going to feel peaceful...you just interrupted his robbery so he's going to be pissed at you not peaceful.

I'm so grateful for you tertiary education and allowing us access to your vast storage of knowledge. We would never have known that Other wise.

It still is the xenophobic republicans who hate some one escaping to get a better life.
The subject I some of obviously was of greater depth than anything you could comprehend you dumb prick.

Wow. Let's get real here. This was a town of 139,000 where only 9000 people voted in this race.

Where a Republican squeaked by because no one was paying a lot of attention.

This is the problem with local races. They don't get a lot of attention.
