We’re not really sure yet if it’s a vote loser for the GOP. We’ll find out come November. It still seems to be a vote winner for these state however and Texas has always been a prime example. I’m afraid we’ve returned to the state where you really have to think twice before moving to a particular state because of their general stance on social issues. Traditionally this was the original states of the Confederacy. But it has spread to northern states.
New York taxes vs. 14th century values isn’t a tough decision for me to make.
