Thousands of Democrats Announce “I Left Idaho” on Social Media as Republicans Flock to the State — Turning America’s ‘Reddest State’ More Red
And the Democrats are not going quietly…
Democrats have been leaving Idaho at an exponential rate since before the corona virus pandemic began.
While reasons for leaving range from marijuana citations to Idaho’s pro life law, thousands of Democrats have taken to social media and professed why they’ve left The Gem state.

While Democrats are leaving the state of Idaho due to its conservative culture and politics, conversely, Republicans are moving to Idaho for those same reasons, leading to what some analysts are predicting to be a ‘more conservative Idaho’ — something Democrats once thought was impossible.
I didn't like single-party rule in California, so I moved to Idaho. #idpol #idleg

I moved to Idaho one month ago. Because liberal states are the most insane hell I’ve ever experienced.

I moved to Idaho from CA 3 years ago and I’m happy to be here 😁
I’m happy to hear you’re friends are leaving. My worst fear is that I won’t be able to raise my children here because the left takes power and turns it into New California.

While Idaho is not completely void of radical left-wing politics, and has its fair share of Antifa and LGBT organizations in Boise, the state is soon to feel the political influence of its influx of conservative political refugees, individuals who’ve escaped liberal policies, and who will fight to keep them out of Idaho.
