Multiple counties in Illinois voted in favor of exploring secession from the state because they don’t like how Chicago turns the state blue. It would definitely be a red state without us.
I was just looking at some of the recent voting data by state and one of the southwestern or Western states was only 6k votes from electing Harris. I think there were only about 100k votes total. Maybe it was Oklahoma?
Only because of Chicago & C®ook County. Virtually the rest of Illinois is red.
Not really. There’s a bunch of tiny rural counties with less than 10k people in them that are. Most places are full of normal people. You forget that a lot of people don’t vote, many other people don’t understand what they’re voting for. Most people wouldn’t want anything to do with the Republican party if they understood their policies.
Yup, and Michigan and Wisconsin are swing states. It’s still the vast majority.
still majority yes, but also minnesota is a solid blue state. It’s maybe like a 75/25 split which isn’t that radical.
In fact, of the yellows, there are 3 Democratic, 2 Swing States, and 5 Republican.
