Yeah, I'm not sold on Texas being a swing state yet, although it definitely will be by the end of the decade. Colorado and Nevada also seem pretty safely blue now. What's funny is that two of the other big swing states in this election are on the opposite list (Michigan and Pennsylvania).

While it would be pretty neat to see Texas go blue I don't know if it will happen in this election. I guess we'll just wait and see...

The polls seem to suggest that Biden has a chance in Texas. But if Texas goes blue, then obviously the Republicans will have to pivot, or they will never win another election. In the future, I think it's likely that Hispanics will become core members of the Republican Party. They tend to be more religious, culturally conservative, family-oriented, and blue collar than whites, all of which are currently traits more associated with the Republican Party. I'm surprised that both parties seem to neglect this huge and growing voter block.

If you listen to the fake media, EVERY state is a swing state or blue. Everyone loves Biden and hates Trump, and even though thousands crawl over glass to see Trump, the media keeps saying Biden has all the love/votes. The media is so fake and biased, that they can't even be taken seriously. Most people lie to pollsters or don't take them, and many people are oversampled or selectively questioned to get the answers the media wants to project. I am greatly hoping they are wrong this year, so we can watch them all cry and have another stroke on TV when their plans get crapped on. They have no integrity or impartial nature whatsoever in 2020.

Well, Texas almost went blue. Biden had a lead on it for a while before more votes came in and it went for Trump.

Trump won Texas by 5.6 percentage points, I wouldn't say it "almost went blue". Quizmaster's prediction about Hispanics seems to be materializing already.

Yeah, I've noticed that all the swing states are either in the rust belt (Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania) or the sun belt (Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, Florida). There's also New Hampshire, but it just has to be special I guess.

Tennessee is farthest from a swing state... Gore no more. Their 2018 Senate election pitted a pure-Trump Republican against a popular conservative former Democratic governor, and the Republican won by 11 points, and this in a quite "blue" year.

Why? These states listed have the most freedom, low costs, low regulations, and mostly friendly people, good food, good weather. That is why all the Yankees keep invading these states and everyone wants to retire in them, and why they are all fleeing New York and the left coast.

"The most freedom." What does that even mean? There is plenty of freedom in every state.

Ah yes. As a very happy, nearly lifelong Floridian, I just love it when people say they’d never want to live here. It’s paradise and I’ll never leave. I just wish everybody would stop fleeing less desirable states for my home. It’s a constant deluge of people. Not bad for a state that people love to hate! (I’ve been here since I was 4. Well, let’s just say that was a LONG time ago!)

I'll stay in the north where we don't have a half dozen hurricanes each year, major sinkholes, extreme heat and humidity, and the threat of half the coastline being obliterated due to rising sea levels. I also like the lack of the earthquakes, fires, and volcanoes found on the West Coast and the West.

Excellent because we don’t have room anymore! Also in my 40 plus years here, 5 miles from the beach, I’ve never had enough damage from any storm to file a claim with my homeowners. I don’t need a snow shovel or snow tires. The heat and humidity is perfect for me. I don’t know of anybody who has been affected by a sink hole. I think that’s mainly Orlando and other center of the states places. None of us nor our great grandchildren will be alive to deal with that much erosion. It is pure paradise and I wish more people felt like you do! Cheers! (As I’m sitting outside drinking iced coffee on thanksgiving in my beautiful lush green yard in 78 degrees with gentle ocean breeze and extremely low humidity. Humidity will be low until Memorial Day. I’ll take it!)

notice that most of those states are republican...

that because of immigration from democrat states they become swing.

so demoncrats leave their failing states and vote the exact same politicians in their new states who had created their initial states into failing states.

Even the states here that are blue only became blue after their prosperity and good government brought in internal migration. Go back 10-15 years and all of these states but Washington are Republican.

California is the most fled state. Most of them go to Arizona, Texas, Nevada, and occasionally Washington and Oregon, which is why voting patterns of those states have changed so much over the last couple of years.

This is net migration. Desirable but expensive places like California and the Northeast attract a lot of people for school and work, but also lose a lot of those people when they become parents or get older because it's too expensive to buy a home or retire. NYC had about the same population 100 years ago, while cities like Jacksonville and Phoenix barely existed.
