Elections 2032 is going to be very bad for Dems

[F1980]

There's an exodus of people moving out of blue states and moving into red states, which will ultimately increase electoral votes for the GOP in the future.

2032 is going to be the next year for census and all signs are pointing towards a very bad time for Democrats.

How can Democrats turn things around and keep people from leaving blue states? More importantly, how are they going to bring them back? There's not even a fart of a plan on how to do this. Nobody on the left is even talking about it, the first step to fixing an issue.

At least they have AOC to save the party

So much can change between now and then so it’s hard to say

it used to be blue state exodus meant purpling of red states, but Florida completely turned that trend on its head.

The purpling of Texas has also been a slower burn than democrats hoped. It’s been the year every cycle for over a decade now and they drifted further away this last cycle.

Arizona is a scalp but Trump won that handily without ever making nice with the neocon McCain machine. So I think Republicans have just been picking some dogshit senate candidates.

Nevada is going redder too because a lot of the California refugees are actually more right wing than the ones that invaded Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico.

It used to be a place never got more red but so many states have moved further right in recent years. Ohio, Iowa, and Florida no longer swing states. No purple state has lost its swing state status to the left recently. Even NJ and Virginia quietly become closer in play this last cycle.

Should be interesting what changes the mass firings of DC leftists brings to the balance of Virginia

It's really not that hard for them. Dump the far left crazies and their far left crazy policies. It's as simple as that. They'll make up the difference with independents. They can still do it, but it's like watching poison running through someone's veins, and you give them an antidote, and all they have to do is use it. They don't for some reason, and just ride it out and let that poison spread.

It's up to them whether or not they want to actually be a viable party in the future, or a footnote in history.

Additionally, dump the likes of Schumers and Pelosis. Dinosaurs. It's a shame they can't also have strokes and be forced out like McConnell

The Democrats are in a tough spot for sure. They backed some really fringe movements and it brought in a lot of crazies and chased out a lot of the sane people.

They've also completely lost their way on foreign policy. They're basically 2002 Republicans now when it comes to foreign policy.

The electoral college was already off in the last election. It should have been like an 8 or 9 point swing in favor of red states based on the errors the last census had. Didn't matter in the end because Trump won an electoral blowout anyway, but they could already adjust it before 2028.

Dems really just need to stop digging their heels into the losing side of 80/20 issues, or else the census numbers aren't going to matter anyway.

 

[LangfordBarrow]

Now that we've heard from all the libtards...

So if by population it's usually the left winning the popular vote, but losing the Electoral College, doesn't that imply that by moving to Red states it could flip them Blue? I know there are a bunch of bumblefuck districts nobody from a city would want to move to but if it occured as a political strategy it seems the Right would be the side that needs to worry.

Here are some possible solutions put forth by Progressives.

Ezra Klein & Derek Thompson: Less Obstruction, More Government​

Housing. Lots of it. Make it abundant as oppose to scarce, so it will be more affordable. Strengthening the people’s government not weakening it. Unfortunately, the Trump administration is not interested in any of that.

Barriers:
US may be staring at a housing crisis, thanks to Elon Musk and DOGE

I’d be more concerned about what this country will look like after four years of Republican rule. If it’s only four years that is. Not sure with the way things have been going.

Increase in housing availability is the natural result of moving all the illegals out.

 

[AmonTobin]

That’s incorrect. Housing in high density cities already struggles with affordability and illegals are the least likely to afford them.

There’s always “an exodus us from blue states.” I’ve been hearing the same shit my whole life. And it’s never really true.

But if you guys are naive enough to think there will even be real elections after this, you’re just fucking naive.

They're totally going to, at the very least, attempt to cancel the next elections. And the MAGAtards here will find reasons to applaud it.

Complete suspension of reality here folks.

I'll leave the site forever if you are correct. You resign as a moderator.

The leftists will be looking for a casus belli in order to revolt.

Reality hardly matters now, and it will matter less in 3.5 years

@Sinister what say you?

Or we could just make votes based on pure popular vote, like the rest of the world's democracies.
