@bamaraiderable it's less to do with environmental laws and more to do with local cities/ nimbies oposing everything with zoning. Because rising prices help them personally.
And the only reason supply isn't available is because of local NIMBY and environmental regulations. Tokyo's population tripled and housing got cheaper because their zoning laws allowed for new homes to be built to match demand and construction of housing became cheaper over time.

This is why blue states have become staunch defenders of sanctuary for illegals. They know that current census will count them as part of the population.
But to an extent, there are a lot of Dems moving to the red states. That's how you have AZ, GA, TX and NC going from red to purple. Clearly, the move to Florida is because of Republicans moving out of CA, NY and even TX. Btw, even though Texas went to Trump by 14 points this time, I'll still refute that they've become bluer. Ted Cruz only won his race by 296,000 votes in 2018 after winning by 1.2M votes in the 2012 election. That's the proof. In 2020, Trump won the state by 5.5 points after winning it by 9 points in 2016. That's a lot of blue shifts there. GA's 2 senators are now Democrats. For 16 years, they were both Republican. That's progress!
And then those states get more blue. NC, GA, TX, and AZ were out of reach for decades. Now, they've all gone blue in national and local elections except Texas. One election cycle and people lose their minds. You also didn't touch on the growth of other blue states, such as Colorado, Delaware, and Virginia. This whole take is just flat out terrible. Red states like Iowa and Ohio are also losing votes.
Well Trump was closer to winning New York than Kamala was to winning Texas, so..... Not saying you're wrong, but I definitely don't share your level of confidence.
lmfao what are you talking about? Texas was +9 Republican in 2016. Now, 8 years later, Texas is MORE Republican, at +13. Bill Clinton won Georgia and Arizona in the 90s. Florida was a tossup in 2016, +1 Republican, now it is +13.5% Republican. Texas and Florida especially are getting redder
If there's one thing I have learned over the past few election cycles, it's that nobody has any idea how to predict anything in the imminent future, let alone 6-16 years down the line. You can use all the data and math that you want, but more often than not there are just things we don't see coming. To claim that you know how some immigration patterns may affect electoral success a decade down the line is unbelievably shortsighted. Please stick to real journalism.
Exactly. Who would have thought that Latinos will vote Republicans in such large numbers? Amish who usually didn't vote and were more comfortable with Democrats were the game changers for conservatives. Working class which voted Democrats for about 100 years has shifted to Republicans. Nothing is predictable about human behaviour. Also, if Republicans have to keep their Non white votes, they will have to compromise with core white conservative issues. Border issue will not dictate elections forever. This will make Republicans more liberal themselves.
Stupid. Blue people moving to red states makes the red states blue. Texas is the primary example. Arizona is nearly purple now and if trends continue, will be blue. The poster is not thinking.
How do you explain Florida then? Over the last few years it became redder than Texas, in fact, it's the reddest state in the US. Millions have fled the north east to Florida. Most of them seem to be voting red.
@@claytonlatone8959 Probably not. The blue majorities in blue states are usually insurmountable. Remember, red people are not flocking to blue states, it's the other way around.
Well, the Dems could do a better job of addressing costs in the states they govern, but we also have better schools, better health care, a stronger safety net, and just better quality-of-life outcomes. I'm not so sure I would right off blue states completely. Sure, Texas is growing in population, but there's worries about ensuring an adequate water supply and that public schools can accommodate population growth. Not to mention a high uninsured rate because Texas refuses to expand Medicaid. Every place has its problems. Blue states do, so do red states.
If the leadership and policies were so bad, they wouldn't be moving there in the first place. There's something to learn from blue states and there's also something to learn from red states. And by the way, there are no red states and blue states, there are just blue cities. To call an entire state red or blue is an over-generalisation
Not everything is the “dems fault” it’s with both parties and how they are arranged under the 2 party system and politicians valuing money. The argument about “dems need to wake up cus they ruined the economy” is ridiculous because that was a result of both parties, insufficient leadership under Biden and Republicans in Congress refusing to pass any sort of bills to help the regular people
But it is also possible that migration from democratic states could cause red states to flip, if more of the people moving over time want more liberalism like blue states
THAT is EXACTLY what happened to COLORADO which used to be reliably RED... All of the Californians & Far West people who moved there ( Colorado) changed it to a NOW Reliably BLUE 🔵.
But that just isn’t happening Texas is +13 red and Florida is +15 red both the states with highest levels of immigration could it be that your ideology is simply falling out of favor
I like how the people in the comment section are forgetting that red states got more redder this year which meant that red states didn’t get more blue and that blue states got more red, New Jersey was only separated by 5 points Yall, the democrats can’t afford to lose more millions.
I think this will be the first time in a LONG time that the party in power will actually gain house and senate seats in the mid terms. 2024 is the beginning of the end for The democrats as a party
@@MegaChallangerheavy cap, Americans are becoming more and more anti-establishment. And impatient. We don’t want to give a president four years to succeed, once Americans see that Trump doesn’t fulfill half his promises and doesn’t actually lower cost of living, democrats will gain hella seats. We saw this in 2018 and will see this again in 2026. Also, when Trump is done with politics, republicans have a lot of problems with the face of the party. It’s the party of Trump and when Trump leaves what do you think happens? While I do agree if Democrats keep running establishment candidates, they will lose more and more popularity, but Republicans arguably have more issues to face in the future
@@MegaChallanger Trumps plans are widely unpopular and some of his voters don't vote down the ballot, so they won't be showing up during the midterms. So he wont be gaining anything. Plus democrats have done not so bad in local and senate elections this year. But I half agree with the second statement, that what democrats do know will either make or break the party
1 cycle. 2008 had Michigan further than Mississippi. It's an overreaction to say that one party is dead or the other. In 1984, Reagan won all but Minnesota and DC. 8 years later, Clinton won by a 370 EV landslide. People need to stop overreacting to one cycle
In a real democracy there would be more than a 2 party system and we could build a coalition government. Like the UK and other democracy and just like the UK that doesn't have the electorical college, conservatives (tories) and liberals (labor) would have to work with other parties on issues that impact those areas.
@@NeilBaxter-mg5cxDonald Trump is now considered a normal candidate rather than a giant aberration because the news media has allowed him to become normalized. It's how he won, and it's a disgrace.
Democrats own 90% of media. What are you talking about? They've literally been tagged teeming for the last 9 years They railed against trump so hard they lost all their credibility
Think that will happen? A big reason housing can't be built in those blue states is regulations. (Materials are expensive everywhere.) Also taxes are ridiculously high in many blue states. Coupled with lousy weather in many. (Not Cali of course.)
Not really, you mainly need to build more houses and most blue states don’t have that much land to expand into like they do in red states, they need to build up.
Anything can happen in the span of 8 years. When bush was elected in 2000, people said there would not be another democratic president in decades. Trends in voters, demographics etc can always look good for one party over the other, but trends always change.
Yea and more and More Immigrants would come,USA would less whiter that would cause Democrates hugh benefit upcoming decades,Muslims for trump, Blacks for trump,Latinos for trump won't last much they would regret in mid terms
Blue States should go their own way, chart their own paths. If they offered Universal Healthcare, Child Care, Lavish Child Tax Credit, Expanded State spending on Seniors and Disabled, Great Education etc....... and did better in those, then more ppl would move there. Also, they can just buck whatever a Red Federal Gov sends their way and resist and disobey. California is leading the way, so is Minnesota. There's no reason to comply.
They need to reduce taxes in CA and NY, get more housing built, cut regulations, lower the cost of living in general, and stop pushing freakish social engineering in front of children's faces. That last one scares away families.
While I completely agree with your perscription, you do realize that if they (the blue states, notably CA and NY) did this, they would be red states by virtue of the policies that they adopt! Win-Win
@@Aristocles22 Perhaps so, but ultimately if the policies change, a substantial portion of the most obnoxious (in the original sense of the word) voters will become irrelevant. Please note again that I share your suggestion as to how to improve this situation. If the blue states adopt policies such as the ones you describe (i.e. low government footprints, reduced/eliminated social engineering, etc.), they become far less objectionable in general. After all, aren't we all (whatever our partisan identification) really better off with a more reasonable set of of shared policies, to form the basis of a broader national consensus?
Lol, everything you just said is impossible for Dems to do and still be Dems. Like, literally, the party would lose its entire reason for being if it did those things. Doing those things inherently means that one is not a Democrat. It's like trying to train a cat to bark or a dog to meow.
Homes are too much! A house on average today is $400.000 to $500,000. my mom and dad paid under $75,000 for a 4 bed and 3 in a half bath with two cars and a boat. Today you have to be a millionaire to have all that. today's homes and boats are just overpriced. Plus, the mishandling of finance and over giving money to our military and other countries in our budget that is being wasted and has caused financial issues elsewhere for multiple welfare programs, and our infrastructure. The costs from climate change is causing financial ruin. Republicans know about climate change but refuse to do anything while liberals talk about it and do a halfglass approach while lining their pockets. The country can't afford another 4 years of failed leadership, and unfortunately, we will still have it. Democrats and Republicans aren't the answer to our problems and unfortunately they are needed to run our country atm and they will continue this back and forth nonsense between each other while the rest of us in the middle are screwed. The American dream died under my parents generation. I have no saving and own a mobile home but it's falling apart. I blame the boomer generation for it all.
Tbh I wonder if this trend will continue no matter what they did, because people are more and more working remotely. If you can get red-state cost of living, with blue state incomes, there's a lot of motivation to leave. Yes, cost of living is a big part of the picture right now, but I wonder if other reasons will replace those in the future anyway.

By voting reform do you mean restricting voting lmao. Hispanics will flee the GOP the second he starts putting immigrants in camps using the military, all things he said he will do.

Do you realize that would increase the country’s debt… we would have to cut education, medicare, medicaid & medicare to pay for it . The guy is worth $345 billion and is trying to to get more at your expense ..
See part of the problem with American politics is viewing states as immovably Republican or Democrat, so the parties don't even bother and focus all their efforts on a small handful of swing states. The reality is that many states change parties, and did so very often. Relying on demographics instead of courting voters is poisonous to our politics.
Housing Yes.. but home offices and remote work has become more common place.. For instance. , a New York programmer can work on a project from Miami Beach ..
Companies are fighting remote work.Basically they have big mega structures but that will go out of service if they're not used so it's beneficial for them to get rid of it
Democratic mayors and city councils would do anything but cut red tape and permit new housing in their constituencies. This is so sad. Alexa play Despacito.
Eww that old guard is dead, and this years election proves it. The party is far left, and believes in certain core values: housing a human right, single payer healthcare, universal jobs program, get money out of politics, being for the pro-act. Fairly simple
@@thejquinn The party is not far left. That's why the carpet bagging far left candidate keeps losing in primaries. That said the party is moving towards the left but that's also the reason it is losing people from the center. OP was sorta right. Democrats need to be center-left and need a charismatic (not populist) candidate.
@@thejquinnThe voters are further to left than the party except for individuals like Bernie, AOC, and the like. Moderate populist candidates like Clinton and Obama are definitely an old guard now.
@@BTrain-is8ch Yeah no one in either party likes the center, thats why figures like Biden, Kamala, Manchin, and Sinema, are all hated. They all are there to simply serve the elite, and thats the entire basis of centrism, when the nation is in a systemic crisis after systemic crisis from wars to housing to healthcare to debt, you name it, and needs someone with an actual vision that they themselves believe, and not one orchestrated by their donors.
No, left wingers are abandoning Dems because they are too right wing now so there’s little point to voting FOR them rather than against Republicans. Dems need to go more economically left and win back populist voters who were conned by Trump.
It could also reverse itself in the next 2-4 years if people leave red states for blue states. Democrats in red states may feel more motivated to move out than they did during the last four years, now that the federal government has turned red. I anticipated this possibility, so I already left a red state for a blue state in 2022.
Yeah that's not happening…. The pattern that Democrats have been following for decades is: 1) vote for over the top authoritarian blue government which raises taxes and over regulates, making life miserable 2) move to more "free" states that have lower or no income tax and less regulations 3) try to "vote Blue no matter who" to change the formally "free" state to the same blue hive disaster they left
Please compare the national debt to the cumulative dollar amount we American have overpaid for medical paperwork processing as compared to Canadians since 1970.
That's not necessarily True. Gavin Newsom, Jared Polis, and Tim Walz, for instance, are cutting red tape to allow more homes to get built which (over time) will lower housing costs.
They're trying more government in Florida and Texas where they tell teachers and professors what they can and can't say in the classroom, tell students what books they can and can't read, and punish businesses for exercising free speech.
2:00 It might not be as likely as some people think that the migration turns a red state blue. The people moving might be doing so because they're fed up with blue.
As a trans woman and an American citizen who needs a new place to live, Please let real estate developers build new housing in blue states. I am begging you.
At the same time, I bet you voted to raise the minimum wage and raise taxes. I'll answer this for no.They won't they know you're just gonna keep voting for them no matter what They have 0 and incentive to have good policy at all.They just make it sound good At least republicans vote out the people they don't like you. Just keep voting for them
Harris said she would build new housing. If she becomes CA governor in 26, which, if she runs, she will win, and if she keeps her campaign promises but shifts them to a state level, we could see an uptick in affordable housing, and therefore cheaper housing.
What do you think allowing 8 million people with no means of support into the country over four years has done? Do you think that helps the housing situation in the country?
Lets not foget that Wall Street is controlling a lot if inventory… They don’t want an increase in inventory because price will stabilize or even fall..
High cost of housing, high crime rates, homelessness, high tax rates that drive businesses out of state, corrupt DEI appointees and unionized civil workers who suffocate competition.... all of these make many "blue states" very poor choices for living. I hope people vore and their democratic governments fix the problems before its too late.
How about people start researching candidates along with their voting records and vote on issues instead of just defaulting to red or blue? Wouldn't that be a novel change?
Oversimplified take from the NYT. This only makes sense if the people leaving blue states were already republicans or switched parties along with states. Otherwise, the effect would be making red states more purple or possibly blue. Given how close the last election was, my guess is that the Republican Party would hate it if democrats actually moved to some swing states.
Literally every single state voted more red in 2024 than in 2020. And that is with many Republican voters abandoning blue states. I don’t think your logic is holding up very well.
Democrats should repeat their policies like crazy. Biden actually got a lot done, but he had no energy to do the whole media campaign. He also didn’t have the gumption to push back on cons. Name drop people responsible for blocking bills that could benefit them.
it should not be like this.... there should not be red or blue, it should just be that the majority populare vote make a winner. go from the system you have now to a system that make every voters vote count... now if you woted for Trump and kamala won, the peoples that voted for Trump did not matters. and v vers.
This analysis is flawed. Yes, blue states may lose electoral college votes. But you don’t know the political leanings of those moving to red states. If democrats are moving to red states, then the red states will become less red. Solid blue states like California and NY can afford to lose millions of democrat voters and still be solidly blue. In fact, the concentration of democrats in big cities hurts the Democratic Party because it makes each democrat voter’s vote less valuable (from an electoral college perspective). Even if NY losses a million democrat voters, it will still be a solid blue state. If those million democrat voters move to Texas, then (all else being equal) Texas will become more purple.
I would think you would be right about red>purple, but I'm not sure the data bears this out. However, many of the people moving are probably tired of Democratic governance in their state and will vote Republican in their new state.
@@jps0117 Actually the only thing keeping red states red is low voter turnout. And the main reason for moving is high housing prices(cause blue states are more populated). If the California voters vote blue in texas it might give more people a reason to do so
In the last election, if New York lost a million Harris votes, Harris would have won by only about 35000 votes, which is less than the margin in every swing state besides Wisconsin. That does not sound solid blue to me. Then, if those million votes all were in Texas, Texas still would have been won by Trump by 570000 votes, which is quite the margin, almost as big as Illinois’s.
I am a blue voter in California. I can’t afford to be a blue voter though. I don’t want to rent till I die, my gas prices are highest in the nation, the cost of living is too high, crime and anti 2a California stance is disempowering. My state is a solid blue state due to urban areas. I need a party that will not keep me poor
To be fair, Democrats at the state level in California are passing several land-use reform laws every year to get rid of the red tape and allow more homes to get built which will (over time) lower housing costs. Republicans in California are generally against this because homeowners benefit from higher housing costs.
Not necessarily because there's been a market shift in some of these states in particular cities getting bluer and bluer. My county had been traditionally red to purple and now it's light purple going to Blue. That's in Florida by the way.

To claim that you know how some immigration patterns may affect electoral success a decade down the line is unbelievably shortsighted. Please stick to real journalism.
What if more arguments in favour of this prediction?
That's very true, but at the same time, it's a clear trend, and not one to take lightly.
Exactly. Who would have thought that Latinos will vote Republicans in such large numbers? Amish who usually didn't vote and were more comfortable with Democrats were the game changers for conservatives. Working class which voted Democrats for about 100 years has shifted to Republicans.
Nothing is predictable about human behaviour.
Also, if Republicans have to keep their Non white votes, they will have to compromise with core white conservative issues. Border issue will not dictate elections forever. This will make Republicans more liberal themselves.
Please keep in mind this is an opinion piece
@@AlexKawa20 Lmao you mean not one to take "lightly"?
Stupid. Blue people moving to red states makes the red states blue. Texas is the primary example. Arizona is nearly purple now and if trends continue, will be blue. The poster is not thinking.
Ok sure, but those blue states would have just as good a chance at flipping red then, right?
How do you explain Florida then? Over the last few years it became redder than Texas, in fact, it's the reddest state in the US. Millions have fled the north east to Florida. Most of them seem to be voting red.
@@claytonlatone8959 Probably not. The blue majorities in blue states are usually insurmountable. Remember, red people are not flocking to blue states, it's the other way around.
States stay red, blue counties become denser, blue votes stay invisible 😂
Dem needs to ask why ppl are voting to red states. Just terrible policy and leadership
Naw.
Your ShiTexasitan may be PARADISE to YOU, but NORMAL Folks don't want to live under Republican't 🇷🇺 Talibangelical Dictatorships !
Well, the Dems could do a better job of addressing costs in the states they govern, but we also have better schools, better health care, a stronger safety net, and just better quality-of-life outcomes. I'm not so sure I would right off blue states completely. Sure, Texas is growing in population, but there's worries about ensuring an adequate water supply and that public schools can accommodate population growth. Not to mention a high uninsured rate because Texas refuses to expand Medicaid. Every place has its problems. Blue states do, so do red states.
If the leadership and policies were so bad, they wouldn't be moving there in the first place. There's something to learn from blue states and there's also something to learn from red states.
And by the way, there are no red states and blue states, there are just blue cities. To call an entire state red or blue is an over-generalisation
First they have to acknowledge it. Even doing that will be difficult for them.
Not everything is the “dems fault” it’s with both parties and how they are arranged under the 2 party system and politicians valuing money.
The argument about “dems need to wake up cus they ruined the economy” is ridiculous because that was a result of both parties, insufficient leadership under Biden and Republicans in Congress refusing to pass any sort of bills to help the regular people
Is the NYT already trying to appease the Republican overlords?

But it is also possible that migration from democratic states could cause red states to flip, if more of the people moving over time want more liberalism like blue states

Not really, you mainly need to build more houses and most blue states don’t have that much land to expand into like they do in red states, they need to build up.

They need to reduce taxes in CA and NY, get more housing built, cut regulations, lower the cost of living in general, and stop pushing freakish social engineering in front of children's faces. That last one scares away families.
While I completely agree with your perscription, you do realize that if they (the blue states, notably CA and NY) did this, they would be red states by virtue of the policies that they adopt! Win-Win
@f1b0nacc1sequence7 They'd still be blue for other reasons.
@@Aristocles22 Perhaps so, but ultimately if the policies change, a substantial portion of the most obnoxious (in the original sense of the word) voters will become irrelevant. Please note again that I share your suggestion as to how to improve this situation.
If the blue states adopt policies such as the ones you describe (i.e. low government footprints, reduced/eliminated social engineering, etc.), they become far less objectionable in general. After all, aren't we all (whatever our partisan identification) really better off with a more reasonable set of of shared policies, to form the basis of a broader national consensus?
Lol, everything you just said is impossible for Dems to do and still be Dems. Like, literally, the party would lose its entire reason for being if it did those things. Doing those things inherently means that one is not a Democrat. It's like trying to train a cat to bark or a dog to meow.

Today you have to be a millionaire to have all that. today's homes and boats are just overpriced. Plus, the mishandling of finance and over giving money to our military and other countries in our budget that is being wasted and has caused financial issues elsewhere for multiple welfare programs, and our infrastructure. The costs from climate change is causing financial ruin. Republicans know about climate change but refuse to do anything while liberals talk about it and do a halfglass approach while lining their pockets. The country can't afford another 4 years of failed leadership, and unfortunately, we will still have it.

That may be true, if the main reason people are leaving is because of economic issues and not social issues. We can see what happens.
See part of the problem with American politics is viewing states as immovably Republican or Democrat, so the parties don't even bother and focus all their efforts on a small handful of swing states. The reality is that many states change parties, and did so very often. Relying on demographics instead of courting voters is poisonous to our politics.

It could also reverse itself in the next 2-4 years if people leave red states for blue states.

I anticipated this possibility, so I already left a red state for a blue state in 2022.

1) vote for over the top authoritarian blue government which raises taxes and over regulates, making life miserable
2) move to more "free" states that have lower or no income tax and less regulations
3) try to "vote Blue no matter who" to change the formally "free" state to the same blue hive disaster they left

Watch Chicago. Johnson is about to raise working Chicagoans property taxes.
This analysis is flawed. Yes, blue states may lose electoral college votes. But you don’t know the political leanings of those moving to red states. If democrats are moving to red states, then the red states will become less red. Solid blue states like California and NY can afford to lose millions of democrat voters and still be solidly blue. In fact, the concentration of democrats in big cities hurts the Democratic Party because it makes each democrat voter’s vote less valuable (from an electoral college perspective). Even if NY losses a million democrat voters, it will still be a solid blue state. If those million democrat voters move to Texas, then (all else being equal) Texas will become more purple.
I would think you would be right about red>purple, but I'm not sure the data bears this out. However, many of the people moving are probably tired of Democratic governance in their state and will vote Republican in their new state.
@@jps0117just compare Oklahoma and Massachusetts. 2 states that voted 100% red/blue (County wise)

@@jps0117 Actually the only thing keeping red states red is low voter turnout. And the main reason for moving is high housing prices(cause blue states are more populated). If the California voters vote blue in texas it might give more people a reason to do so
In the last election, if New York lost a million Harris votes, Harris would have won by only about 35000 votes, which is less than the margin in every swing state besides Wisconsin. That does not sound solid blue to me. Then, if those million votes all were in Texas, Texas still would have been won by Trump by 570000 votes, which is quite the margin, almost as big as Illinois’s.
I am a blue voter in California. I can’t afford to be a blue voter though. I don’t want to rent till I die, my gas prices are highest in the nation, the cost of living is too high, crime and anti 2a California stance is disempowering. My state is a solid blue state due to urban areas. I need a party that will not keep me poor
To be fair, Democrats at the state level in California are passing several land-use reform laws every year to get rid of the red tape and allow more homes to get built which will (over time) lower housing costs. Republicans in California are generally against this because homeowners benefit from higher housing costs.
