No offense, but Barbers Hill isn’t mainstream America. Just because Dems are at an all-time low approval doesn’t mean the voters will switch Parties, and it doesn’t guarantee Republicans will show up to vote Republican. I’m reading a great number of both Parties are moving Independent.

Texas will lose as many seats as California if illegals aren’t counted.

I want less government intervention—from either Party.

Its called "Mont Belvieu" not Barbers Hill, that's the name of the school. In any case I was not referring to any specific locale. A Communist mayor in NY will cause nothing but problems for the Democrats nationally. The nation will watch NY implode on TV.

I do not believe TX will lose seats like CA, because CA is losing both illegals and productive Americans moving to red states for a better life. I think TX, FL and TN are gaining population even as illegals are being deported, while NY, CA and IL are losing both illegals and Americans.

I was thinking about y’all’s QB situation, and had BH on my brain. Sorry.

I’m not sold I see SCOTUS approving a change in the census/apportionment. If they don’t, seat apportionments won’t change until 2032. Long time away.

As far as NYC imploding, it won’t be seen by the majority. How often do you see anything about Chicago that’s not on Fox?

I don’t think the majority are that engaged. You have more faith in the everyday voter than me I guess. I also think you underestimate the allure of ‘free stuff.’ (Didn’t you post something about Jesse Waters interviews and other people on the street interviews, or was that someone else?)

But, you could be right.

I fail to see how very likely electing a Socialist/Communist Mayor of NYC and Seattle, already having one in Chicago, and—closer to home—having basically a Socialist Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo and 2 Council Members reflects people waking up.

Well yes in certain sectors socialism is there…. but from what acquaintances from said areas(nyc and Harris county)have told me people are moving out of those places and it’s not just conservatives but moderates and fringe dems.

Should they even be considered the “Democratic Party”……the name has been hijacked IMO….not that makes a difference to me nothing has ever appealed to me on that side.  I ve voted mostly conservative with some libertarians sprinkled in.
