Sounds like the settlers from Commiefornia repopulating Colorado, Wyoming, and Texas . . . screw up your location bad enough to move, then re-start the process somewhere where it isn't screwed up

That's right. And 1/5th of El.Salvador now lives in the USA mostly in VA which will never vote conservative again. But don't vote for
Trump. |

Quoted: Exodus from Puerto Rico could upend Florida vote in 2016 presidential race Puerto Rico exodus could mess Florida vote With the mass exodus of Boricuas from the island due to economic issues, the voting patterns in Florida will never be Conservative on National Elections ever again. They aren't moving to NYC anymore. They're settling in Central Florida. The I-4 Corridor was the PR epicenter in Florida until Brazilians overtook them. But the return of economic misery in PR changed that. Boricuas are moving in huge numbers to FL for economic opportunities. They will tip the scales towards Democrats along with the Miami Cubans youth reaching voting age. The Republican Florida is done on a National Level. On State level issues.... It will take a bit longer. All the New Yorkers down here is also not much help. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Sounds like the settlers from Commiefornia repopulating Colorado, Wyoming, and Texas . . . screw up your location bad enough to move, then re-start the process somewhere where it isn't screwed up   Both States are controlled by major liberal population centers even though the majority of both States geographically are Conservative. The issue with that is that the game is numbers and not land. Florida will go through a interesting change in the next twenty years. |

That's why we need to dump the electoral college and go straight up popular vote. You have all the trash in NYC dictating what way the rest of the state will go. It's bullshit.
 Let every vote count.

Boricuas are moving in huge numbers to FL for economic opportunities. Sounds like if the R's did what they are supposed to do economically they could have a huge influx of voters instead of a huge influx of opponents. Alas they are too busy with social issues and ain't got time for that. More important to define legitimate rape and gripe about gay marriage. |

Ohio has seen the same thing. Cities like Columbus and Cincinnati used to go Republican (or at least, mostly so), as little as 5-10 years ago.

What amazes me is hispanic culture is really very conservative and due to perception they seem to vote against their own values. I think there are several things going on with this. 1) Though hispanics are individually very conservative, they tend to come from collectivist / communist societies. It's all they know. 2) Democrat vote buying schemes have largely been working. 3) The media smears republicans as racist because they have the audacity to suggest that the damned law be enforced. 4) Hispanics tend to be socially conservative, but don't really believe that the dems will do them harm on that front. The situation with hispanics voting D will continue to obtain until they are the majority, and then the .gov decides to love them tenderly in terms of taxation. This may not apply to Texas, where the hispanics seem to be different, at least to me. The whole place is more different than most realize, until you spend some time there. |

They (and us) can move freely between the states and island whenever they choose and can decide to move to any state they like....they are also fully eligible to vote if they move to the states. You know, because they are citizens. They are not going to become an independent state. They have held several referendums and overwhelmingly voted to become a US state. If anything changes, it will be in the direction of statehood. |
