    Similar thing is happening here in Washington. A lot of people from Austin moving here because Texas politics are terrible.

        Texas is on the level of: Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mississippi, South Carolina, and yes, even Florida.

        The only people who don’t agree are texas liberals who have lived in its major cities their entire lives. That’s about 2 million general election voters perpetually waiting for ‘the day that never comes’ when texas actually becomes blue.

      I moved from Texas to Washington about 12 years ago. I noticed pretty quickly after moving that damn near any time I drive, I can spot a car with Texas plates if I look for one. I saw one just yesterday while I was taking a walk.
