Report: Blue-state Migration Could Have Flipped Arizona

Democrats have been trying to win Arizona for several election cycles, convinced that the growing Latino vote would turn the state blue. But in an election where Republicans grew among Latinos, migration from blue states was a major factor.

That’s the analysis floated by Gene Balk at the Seattle Times, who notes that “priced-out California liberals” have moved to Arizona in large numbers, and migration from Washington State — another liberal stronghold — was second-highest.

He notes:

Quote
    I looked at census data on state-to-state migration and found that since the 2016 election — from 2017 to 2019 — about 150,000 Californians who are eligible to vote (U.S. citizens, age 18 and older) moved to Arizona. While the data doesn’t tell us anything about the political affiliations of the those movers, California is, of course, one of the bluest states.

    But guess which other very-blue state ranks No. 2 after California for sending expats into Arizona. That’s right: Washington.

    …

    From 2017 to 2019, 43,000 voting-eligible Washingtonians made the move south. While that number can’t compare with California, it’s still surprisingly large.

    …

    Keep in mind that Biden defeated Trump in Arizona by a margin of about 10,500 votes, so those 43,000 ex-Washingtonians certainly could have made a difference.

Yup.  It's the same thing in AZ.  I'm looking forward to this year's redistricting maps.  We got screwed by the cheating Dems years ago when they got a majority of the redistricting commission seats.  The Rats aren't getting the demographic advantage they expected from the Latin vote because a lot of them have conservative values.  It's the whiney little soiboyz from California screwing us over.

I have no doubt ... and that migration, aka amnesty once granted by the DEMS will flip TX and FL and other states and we will never see another GOP seated again.

We are NOT going to win at the ballot box.  The integrity of our electoral process is gone.

O.K.

So, it is just one more headwind to contend with.

I get that.

We can't stop people from moving here.

What can be done to keep AZ red ?

Strange that Cubans fleeing Castro don't vote to implement Castro policies but Americans fleeing Blue states do

Up until this year, from the stats that I have seen, most Hispanics/Cubans (and I'm primarily referring to the Miami-Dade area) voted liberal -- this year they voted against Biden.  Trump won FL easily.  I saw a huge glimmer of hope at that point.

With all the fraud/corruption that went on, who knows, but I find it unlikely that those fleeing Blue states would vote Biden.

I guess it depends on why they are fleeing.  The ones escaping the forest fires are probably still soy-boy leftists.
