Not the States with vote by mail, legal pot, death with dignity laws, Medicaid expanded before ACA, excellent green mass transit, and lots of high tech to go along with the local, low tech food supply?
I am a CA native to moved north because CA was electing Arnold with e-voting machines and working to pass Prop 8. Big liberals, they are. Just ask their huge prison population.
