“Polling is a good data point in understanding public opinion, but it certainly isn’t the only thing to consider when trying to understand election outcomes. One factor that the national media seems to have altogether discarded in recent months is the enormous amount of domestic migration that has occurred in our country since 2020.
I believe that this exodus of Americans from blue states to red states gives us an insight into the momentum of public opinion today. In fact, there is little doubt that this migration will one day impact presidential politics. The question is how soon that impact will take place.”
Insightful article. In CNBC's "American's Top States for Business in 2024" all of the top 5 states were in the south (Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, Georgia, and Florida).
However, the most important migration happening is the millions of illegal immigrants coming from the Southern border. If this continues to overwhelm red states, then those red states will turn blue.
Once that migration is cut off, then we'll see more electoral progress.
