Tired of being "conned" by the Parties? Here are the facts*:

Topline:

"States led by a Democrat governor (or mayor in Washington DC) generally feature lower fertility, higher LGBTQ+ populations, higher grocery and gas prices, and are significantly more likely to mandate reusable grocery bags. Those jurisdictions also having Democrat legislatures (trifectas), enforce Democrat agendas even more."

*As summarized by prompts to Google’s Gemini AI as of October 2026

**Includes Washington DC, led by a Democrat mayor

Upshot:

• Democrat-led states are more apt to tell you (or your business) how you must do things (e.g., bring your own shopping bags or pay extra for plastic) and with whom you must associate or who you must hire. "Civil rights" laws limit freedom of association when it comes to whom you may serve or sell your products.

• Democrat-led states are more apt to decree what books must be in your children’s libraries and to what kinds of teachers and curricula your kids must be exposed. They reduce your purchasing power by enacting laws and regulations that raise your cost of groceries and gas.

• Democrat-led jurisdictions are the least friendly for having children. They have the lowest TFRs and the highest proportions of LGBTs. There is a robust negative relationship between TFR and the extent of LGBT presence (i.e., the lower the TFR, the higher the proportion of LGBTs, and vice-versa). Washington DC has the highest LGBT density [14.5%] of any city in the world, and lowest TFR [1.11] of large U.S. cities.

Party or Candidate?

• The Democrat Party is the party of change. They may promise more ‘affordability’ and a fairer society, but the proof is in the state ‘puddings’ they govern. Have those changes been good for you or your fellow citizens? While individual candidates may be more winsome or loathsome, almost all will vote with their party. These AI-summarized comparisons suggest that voting for the party that best represents your desires, and cheering (or holding your nose) for its candidate, will best influence society in your direction.

• “Germany, …the United States, United Kingdom, and other rich democracies…[have a] new elite: parties of the left like the American Democrats, British Labour, and the German Social Democrats…[are] increasingly dominated not by the working class they claim to serve, but by educated professionals living in cosmopolitan urban centers. These elites…[espouse] egalitarian policy views, but…[a] huge social gap…[exists] between themselves and their less-educated peers living outside of big cities. The de-industrialization brought on by a globalizing economy and neo-liberal policies exacerbate…this cleavage, with heartland jobs being outsourced or replaced by a service sector requiring a different type of education and skills.” – Francis Fukuyama, Persuasion, 10/6/2026.
