The state ratings appear to be greatly tempered for 2024. I’m not convinced myself. Just because the steal wasn’t as egregious and obvious as 2020 does not mean that the fraud was minimal or nonexistent. It just means that they have learned how to produce the steal and make it more believable and less suspicious. So I must respectfully disagree and dissent. How much MORE would Trump have won Indiana and Ohio by had they been clean? And Illinois was MUCH closer on election night, like New York, until a massive number of Democrat ballots were dropped and inserted, making it appear less close than it actually was. Do I think that Trump won Illinois or New York? Likely not, but I’m betting that they were MUCH closer than the certified results would suggest. And I’m willing to bet that in Indiana and Missouri, Trump actually had 60%+, and that Ohio was probably not far under 60%. I could go on, but you get the idea. Just my two worthless cents.
The only concerns I have with Indiana and Ohio is that the vast majority of candidates at all levels are RINOs. Conservatism is very shallow in both among voters. Among office holders there is scarcely a difference between Democrat and Republican with the exception that Republican officeholders are slightly less Woke.
I'm afraid that Illinois is hopelessly Progressive. For a long time. It was home to Lincoln, after all. Perhaps it is the aftereffects of Whigism.
