When people vote in mass, Dems win. When people that should be voting stay home, the GOP wins.
But anyways, in NJ, the good part is that much of this growth is in the urban areas and urban-like suburbs. The Hispanic population is expected to grow 1/3 in the next 20 years. NJ is still a good area for immigrants. Lots of potential.

Same problem in Texas. We should be blue. But voter turnout among minorities and young people is usually low. When you visit cities here and go to restaurants, stores, parks, and ethnic festivals, it's easy to wonder how the hell could this state still be red? But if they don't vote...
I guess gerrymandering is a factor, too.
