Yes, I'm fully aware of that. I live in Texas.

I'm musing about the possibility of Republican California transplants flipping blue states to red.

As I said "we always talk about it the other way around" - liberal transplants turning red states to blue. I'm wondering if the phenomenon could potentially work in our favor, not against us.

I certainly hope so. It's tough to say the demographics of the fleeing Californians

That's true. Here in Texas, though, I'm definitely meeting conservative transplants. Just in our small lib neighborhood I've met four for sure and a few more I suspect.

The problem is they're very cagey (understandably) and assume everyone they meet is a leftist and they have to be careful about expressing their views. So it takes time to figure it out.
