I’ve met several people here in my red area of California that specifically cited politics as the reason for moving to Texas/Florida/Carolinas. Now the real reason may definitively be cost of living issues. But I don’t find it that far fetched to see the ultra conservative people moving for political (or perceived political) reasons. Many of them probably moved here from these states in the first place.
