LINK The Great Self-Sorting Continues: Most Prefer a State That Reflects Their Values

“Democrats thinking about moving to another state are about twice as likely to consider blue states than red or swing states—and Republicans’ preference for red states over the alternatives is even more pronounced,” surmises Axios in a report on the Axios-Ipsos Two Americas Index results released today.

Nearly a third of the people surveyed (30%) said they had thought about moving in the past six months. Of those, a solid majority of both Republicans (58%) and Democrats (55%) reported a preference for moving to a state where the government aligned better with their personal politics. An even greater percentage—65% of Republicans and 69% of Democrats—preferred a new home that was a better fit for their cultural and social values. Republicans were most apt to move to lower-tax states, while Democrats were lured by abortions, rainbow-sex people, and the quest for that ever-elusive racial equality.
