New York Times gives answer to why Virginia has become a blue state

[DukeOfWoodBerry]

And the answer is (drum roll please)... Mass immigration! What a complete surprise. Who could have ever figured that one out.

From Breitbart:

A “tidal wave” of mass immigration has “tilt(ed) the field toward the Democrats” in the state of Virginia, the New York Times admits.
Last week, Democrats took control of Virginia’s House of Delegates and the State Senate. Now, the Democrats hold power over the state’s legislature, the governor’s seat and the lieutenant governor’s seat — the first time since 1993 that this has occurred.

The New York Times now admits that four to five decades of mass immigration — where about 1.2 million legal immigrants are admitted to the United States every year — has shifted Virginia into a blue state:

Not long ago, this rolling green stretch of Northern Virginia was farmland. Most people who could vote had grown up here. And when they did, they usually chose Republicans. [Emphasis added]

The fields of Loudoun County are disappearing. In their place is row upon row of cookie-cutter townhouses, clipped lawns and cul-de-sacs — a suburban landscape for as far as the eye can see. Unlike three decades ago, the residents are often from other places, like India and Korea. And when they vote, it is often for Democrats. [Emphasis added]

…

“It’s a totally different world,” said Charles Poland, 85, a retired history professor whose family has lived in Loudoun County for four generations. His family farm is now dotted with subdivisions filled with four and five-bedroom homes that sell for $750,000. The family legacy is a road named Poland. “If my parents came back today, they wouldn’t recognize the place. The changes came like a tidal wave.” [Emphasis added]

As Breitbart News analyzed, Virginia’s foreign-born population has boomed over the last few decades. In 1990, Virginia was home to less than 312,000 foreign-born residents. Today, there are close to 1.1 million, almost four times what the population was three decades before.

In 2019, 1-in-10 Virginia residents are foreign-born. In 1990, only about 1-in-28 residents were born outside the U.S.

A 38-year-old immigrant from India interviewed by the New York Times explained that he voted for Democrats in the recent Virginia election because he supports gun control measures, calling it the “most pressing issue” for him.

Under current legal immigration levels, the U.S. is on track to import about 15 million new foreign-born voters in the next two decades. Those 15 million new foreign-born voters include about eight million who will arrive in the country through chain migration, whereby newly naturalized citizens can bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the country.

Republicans’ electoral prospects are only expected to get worse because of historically high legal immigration levels, according to research by Axios and the Atlantic.

Ronald Brownstein, senior editor for the Atlantic, noted this year that nearly 90 percent of House congressional districts with a foreign-born population above the national average were won by Democrats. This means that every congressional district with a foreign-born population exceeding roughly 14 percent had a 90 percent chance of being controlled by Democrats and only a ten percent chance of electing a Republican.

The impact of legal immigration levels was evident in the 2016 election despite President Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton. Among native-born Americans, Trump won 49 percent to Clinton’s 45 percent, according to exit polling data. Among foreign-born residents, Clinton dominated against Trump, garnering 64 percent of the immigrant population’s vote compared to Trump’s mere 31 percent.

Demographics are destiny. Prove me wrong with examples and data.

don't worry bro the culties here think everything's okay and republicans will never lose another election let alone 2020

[Johnez]

No way to prove you wrong here Duke.

The question for the Rs is what's the strategy come 2024. If Trump holds it together we may have a chance. Economy runs in cycles though, as does the party in the oval office. I doubt the country will be enamored with republican policy by then.

The strategy will be to move far to the left on gun control, hate speech laws, the border, amnesty, ect.. Imagine Democrat-lite with less taxes and regulations for businesses.

I guess the silver lining with amnesty is that at least they'll be paying taxes, SS and Medicare anyway... I guess I picked a chit time to swing right.

[bassline8]

It's HIGHLY unlike the Republican establishment isn't aware of this. It's cope to think they aren't and you just have to open their eyes. They live and breathe politics and all have highly paid advisers, there's no way they do not get something a 10 year old could understand. Pat Buchanan was talking about demographics 20 years ago.

The scary thought is that they all know this and have known for decades, yet have willfully done nothing and have not even acknowledged it, as it's an inconvenient truth for their donors, and their goal wasn't to win at all, but just to provide a circus to their (white) voter base, so they wouldn't turn to or create any movements willing to actually conserve anything.

Many will be taking out more in social services than they put in. If chain migration is still in place, (it will be) then they can bring in millions more net negatives on the economy.

yea who would have thought big multinational globalists and their wholly-owned subsidiary the GOP wouldn't have your country's best interests in mind?

****ing idiot

In 2011 while speaking on the Senate floor, Bernie reminded his colleagues that Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) claimed in 1993 that “American firms will not move to Mexico just for lower wages.” Bernie then pointed out how over the next ten years after the passing of NAFTA, Mattel, Lexmark International, Texas Instruments, General Electric, Tyco Electronics, and Levi Strauss laid off a total of 3,176 employees and shifted their production to Mexico.

Recent reports and studies have shown that because of NAFTA Americans have lost over 680,000 jobs. One report estimates the job loss as a result of NAFTA is 950,000. A senior economist at EPI stated the following about the disastrous results from NAFTA: “The growing U.S. trade deficit with Mexico has displaced a large number of jobs in the United States and is a significant contributor to the current crisis in U.S. manufacturing, which lost 5.6 million jobs between February 2000 and February 2011.”

America is basically lost because you all failed it. Your founders set you up with a slam dunk and in the 21st century you're not even a top-tier country anymore.

Oh they know. The one hilarious part about new America will be when these rich Republican donors demanding mass immigration and cheap labor get taxed at ridiculously high rates. That's what happens when you put short term profits above all else.

[bassline8]

yea you've been cucked

more news at 11

keep fighting for them though, gotta make sure you keep your party of white people only as long as possible

so glad the GOP are being wiped off the Earth. Now we get to watch conservatives "find themselves" as they are forced to adapt to the left's demands.

The new native Americans of the 21st century being erased by a more powerful and capable force.

Lmao @ a white leftist accusing others of cucking. Your party is explicitly anti-white and it will become more and more explicit as your usefulness to it decreases, and you're actually cheering for it

I don't belong to any political party and I don't drool over a politician like you children.

If the democrats were anti-white, like the GOP is anti-minority, why are all the democratic frontrunners white people? Shouldn't AOC and the Jihad Squad be backing Kamala Harris instead of the old white man from Vermont?

Bassline doesn't worship any politicians from what I've seen. There are Republican lap dogs but they never post in threads about immigration or demographics. Make a thread about the stock market or AOC's feet and you'll find them.

Regarding your question, have you seen Bernie's immigration plan? Hard to get more anti-white than that. It's about who's going to deliver the policy results they want. I'd vote for Michelle Malkin in a second.

Possibly the US will become more segregated by states. R's will move out of states the are lost causes and strengthen of flip states that are within reach.

Ds will just change things to the popular vote if necessary. But really when Texas is lost, along with Arizona, it won't really matter. There aren't enough electoral votes to make that up.

Also, Pete Buttigieg already talked about a plan of bringing immigrants to rural white communities. Dems will work on plans to get more immigrants into swing and red states. Their whole strategy is about changing demographics, trust me they have plans for anything.

Bernie Sanders is one of the strongest proponents of fair trade and opposes all free trade agreements that would displace American jobs to overseas or Mexico. I disagree entirely with his idea of giving free health care and services to illegal immigrants.

Why Conservatives Praise Bernie Sanders on Immigration
https://time.com/4170591/bernie-sand...conservatives/

Roy Beck, the president of NumbersUSA, a group that seeks to dramatically reduce legal and illegal immigration to the United States, said this week that after studying Sanders’ record and rhetoric, he sees some common ground.

“I think in his gut he believes his obligation as president would be to the workers of America, not to the workers of the world,” Beck said in an interview.

Rep. Steve King of Iowa, the adamantly pro-life co-chair of Sen. Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign who has dismissed global warming as a hoax and repeatedly supported shutting down the federal government, praised Sanders’ immigration stance several times in August.

“I admire Bernie’s passion and I notice that his immigration position is closer to mine than it is some of the presidential candidates on the Republican side,” King said in an interview with an Iowa radio station over this past summer. “He’s said ‘Let’s take care of American workers.’ I’m all for that.”

To be sure, Sanders differs from conservative boosters like Beck and King on most counts. Sanders has long supported a path to citizenship and called for better treatment of undocumented immigrants. (NumbersUSA has given Sanders an “F-” grade on immigration policy.)

But the praise is not accidental. Sanders’ opposition to the 2007 immigration reform bill and his rhetoric about the effect of immigrant labor on American workers have dismayed immigration activists and liberal allies in the past. He has expressed concern repeatedly over the years that guest workers in the United States depress wages and squeeze Americans out of their jobs.

Sanders opposed comprehensive immigration reform in 2007 on the grounds that it would expand the number of guest workers in the United States. It included a measure that would allow 200,000 guest workers to stay in the country for two years on temporary visas. The bill was widely supported by immigrant rights groups and would have put the undocumented on a path to citizenship.

“If poverty is increasing and if wages are going down, I don’t know why we need millions of people to be coming into this country as guest workers who will work for lower wages than American workers and drive waged down even lower than they are now,” Sanders said in a television interview in June 2007.

That's the old Bernie Sanders. The new "woke" Bernie is complete garbage on immigration.

It really is on you younger people, at this point I am just doing my part to delay the inevitable so hopefully things don't get too bad before I check out.

Don’t worry, these natural conservatives will start voting for low taxes and gun rights any day now.

It's hilarious watching conservatives do nothing but drink and watch football on their free time and expect the country to stay the same

"Why are these crybabies always protesting" is my favorite conservative line

[NYPat]

From the NYT article garbage Breitbart used for this article:

Mr. Katkuri always thought he would be a Republican in America.

“Taxes, family values, these things are closer to our hearts,” he said. He likes Mitt Romney.

But when he got his citizenship in March and started talking with his friends about whom to vote for in the first election of his life, he realized it had to be Democrats. Mr. Trump helped him decide.

“The way he speaks, you get the feeling that you are separate,” Mr. Katkuri said. “This is not what we signed up for in America.”

Thanks Trump!

How many immigrants and non whites voted for Romney? How many voted for Reagan? Convenient to try and make it about Trump, but data and polling shows that doesn't hold up chief.

Bolded seems to be you theme..

But actually, there are a lot of foreigners with conservative values.

I don't see the evidence of that on a large scale at all. All the evidence shows the opposite.

Who cares about Trump. Think beyond his next term. This country is ****ed from mass immigration. The voting patterns are going to be permanently changed.

Wrong. The #1 way for the Republican party to hold onto the last bit of legitimacy they have left is to acknowledge and address the problems of growing wealth inequality, a struggling working class, poverty etc. Trump won the swing states because he claimed he was going to tackle these issues for blue collar workers (obviously he didn't because he's a fraud).

As long as they continue to champion Jeff Bezos's on paper net worth over the needs of everyone else they don't have a chance in hell of surviving.

Things like guns and trannies don't swing people from one side to the other for the most part.

[bassline8]

Well, seeing how the US will be permanently blue after 2024, I'm sure the multinational globalists are shaking in their boots. That's why the mainstream media, which is completely owned by the multinational globalists, is shilling for the DNC and leftist causes 24/7.
