This is why Texas is in danger of turning blue

The Democrats have been touting since 2014 that Texas was about to turn blue. How could that be, most Americans say. It is as easy to see as it is to look at any of the past 5 Presidential election maps. Major cities around the country are blue. Urban residents vote overwhelmingly Democrat. That is no different in Texas. Houston, San Antonio, Dallas and Austin area all liberal strongholds in the state of Texas.

As noted in the following report, liberals from other failed states, like California, have been moving in droves to successful states, like Texas. When they arrive, they move to major cities, like Austin, and then they continue to vote the same way they did in their former state. The result is to leave the states they have destroyed with those votes and move to a successful state to destroy with those same voting patterns.

As long as Texas is successful, people will continue move there. It is going to be an increasingly difficult job to keep the ‘immigrants’ from other states from taking over and destroying Texas.

What to Know: California is losing its most economically active generation.

“The key issue for California, however, lies with the exodus of people around child-bearing years,” writes Joel Kotkin and Wendell Cox in the Orange County Register. “The largest group leaving the state — some 28 percent — is 35 to 44, the prime ages for families. Another third come from those 26 to 34 and 45 to 54, also often the age of parents. Our analysis? California is in danger of pricing itself out for moderate wage earners, and particularly families. Taxes, poor educational performance, congestion and signs of slowing growth are no doubt contributing factors. But the big enchilada in California — by far the largest source of distortion in living costs — is housing.”

The TPPF Take: Former California State Assemblyman Chuck DeVore spent his whole adult life in the Golden State, but moved to Texas in 2011.

“The first benefit of moving here was buying a home that was close to twice as large as our old home in California for $110,000 less—providing needed room to care for two ailing parents,” says DeVore, who is now TPPF’s Vice President of National Initiatives. “As California loses more and more working families, it will continue to lag behind Texas and other states that allow for more economic freedom.”
