I thought upstate NY was based? Is there just too much influence from the city? Btw, welcome pede.

Thanks! Two counties were blue in 2016, I work in one of them and the other is the city. Taxes here are just too insane, all of it goes to the socialists downstate (so they can defund their police and watch crime skyrocket on the subway), and the governor likes killing babies, on top of the fact that NY doesn't believe much in the 2nd amendment. My other (liberal) brother asked me "Why NH", and I replied "It looks to me like they still believe in the US Constitution over there".

Ahh, I see. Thanks for answering. That's too bad - I know it's a beautiful area, but I can see how one would constantly feel dragged down by the city. I hope you find a place you are happy and find a good group of people to hang with. If you've never heard of her, youtuber Dr. Karyln Borysenko is from NH. She was a pretty rabid leftest who, by her own admission, watched MSDNC all day. She went to a rally and is now full force maga. Check her out. Maybe you can get some insights from her. Good luck.
