Maybe...I can't keep statistics straight in my head as well as I used to. Part of having a teenager in the house. If it weren't just a natural progression of development I'd swear he was involved in a Russian Plot to drive me nuts.

Check with Alphabet, I think he has a list of the major operatives.
Pence specifically? I doubt it. People have been moving out of the Rust Belt for decades now, the winters suck and the big factory jobs that used to anchor people there have been evaporating. Progressive policies, as people like Thomas Frank (or the guys I worked with when I worked for Ecolab in NYC) like to point out, are not very favorable to those who are neither UMC and up or fairly poor. Most of the "blue" states have been haemmorhaging native born (black and white) people for years.

Quote:In any event the fact is that I'm running into loads of people coming from northern rust belt states particularly IL, WI and MN down here. MI and OH are represented too but to a smaller degree. Strangely IN doesn't seem to make the mix....Pence's policies perhaps?
