>People want to move to cheaper states (mostly to be able to buy property). I doubt political affiliations have anything to do with it. This is such a crazy disconnect, though. They might not want to move to a "red state", but they "just happen" to like the ultimate result of red state policy. >In fact if we dig one level deeper I'm willing to bet most of these moves are happening to liberal enclaves in republican states. Sure, because they put more stock in maintaining their political self-identity and label than they do in accepting the fact that they might actually prefer living in a place that's the result of red state politics. Even if that's liberal enclave. It's a form of self-denial.
