@perpetualmystic I remember when NM flipped red in 2004 after a a squeaker of a vote for Gore in 2000. Blue-state people wanted a national divorce then, too, and I recall feeling real terror. I enjoy a lot of privilege, with my middle-class-ish whiteness and apparent cishet-ness, but we had a disabled child and were struggling financially; we would've had a very hard time moving out-of-state. I think many, many people want to live in a democracy, even in the reddest of states.
