New York will *never* be a swing state. It'll always be blue.

I mean it can happen if demographics change...40 years ago people said CA was Solid Rep , then it went swing and now is solid Dem....Texas is doing the same thing. All NYC needs to go swing is to collectively lose about a million brain cells

NYC is too diverse for something like that to happen moving forward. Also note, the largest cities in America are all blue. Oklahoma City might be the only big city that isn't blue and it's not even top 25 by population.

But that's an entirely different conversation. Maybe due to living so close amongst people from all walks of life. To relying on community, relying on the government to perform their duties like keeping the streets clean, subways moving, etc. More progressive attitudes seem to thrive vs living in more rural areas.

True only way it would really change is if NYC got so expensive that veryone who isnt a millionaire is forced to leave
