No disrespect intended in the following reply, @Cyber.
That there are "more GOP than Dems there" is of little actual importance now.
What IS important is that the leftist/communists have seized control, and are using the power they have to solidify their grip.
As the saying goes, "the proof is in the pudding" (or the actual outcome of the election, whether The Party's election apparatus was used or not -- it DOES seem to be used there).
And "the puddin'" is that the important elections are largely being controlled by The Party down there. That is evident and irrefutable over the last 2 election cycles.
For all practical purposes, that makes Arizona "a blue state" now.
It will CEASE being a blue state when the Republican party (in which you are influential) does something to "seize back" the power The Party now holds.
It's merely obtuse speculation on my part, but I don't see how you're going to "get that back" by way of the ballot box. The last two election cycles have proven that.
BTW... I, too, live in a blue state.
The Republicans/traditional-minded folks will NEVER "get this state back", short of revolution or a total societal collapse.
As I said once to a friend, you can be "on the right side" here in CT, but by remaining here you are pretty much assenting political control to the left.
That's "the way it is" here.
I predict it may soon become your fate there, too.
