A new post-election map proves that many more Americans now live in states controlled by Republican governors and legislatures than all-Democratic-run states.
Americans for Tax Reform produced the map showing that 146 million Americans live in all-GOP states compared to 49 million in all-Democratic states. Another 112 million live in states where the party of the governor and legislature are different.
What’s more, ATR President Grover Norquist told Secrets that all-Republican states outnumber all-Democratic states by a whopping 24 to 7.
“This is the demographic of the future of America,” he said.
