One of the unwritten tenets of demography is that the future will belong to those who are there – and the only ways of being there are to be born or to migrate. This chart reflects birth and political stance:
Birth rates vary across our nation – I recall a conversation where an attorney, working for planned parenthood, believed that abortion was equally common on the Reservations of South Dakota. It wasn’t – good data was available, and South Dakota is predominately white with Native being a strong second. Birth rates among the Natives are higher. The chart above shows that birth rates among conservatives are higher.
The future belongs to those who are there. Immigration can tilt the equations.
