How will America be in 2050

[MaC]

There will be an electoral shift, I can base somewhat on what's predicted and somewhat where I predict recession spots to be.  The third party is Libertarians.  Our first electoral victory was in 2020 only in NH.  Then we carried only Nevada in 2024, though New Hampshire was close.  Eventually, we claimed LP territory as three major areas, the southeast, upper New England, and the West.  Although not to a great extent, people are supporting us.  Populism (progressivism) will move back to states like Kansas where it originally started.  The 2052 election will be signifigant because 1. it's the highest electoral votes the LP has got.  2. it's the first time the south is not solid and splits amongst three parties, as it will in almost every future election.  The midwest is area for a more Republican stronghold.
2056:Libertarians get their first president, in a landslide victory, somethin' like 448-59-31

yeah, hence Jesus's questioning on why Oregon will be solid Republican.  I think population shifts from the Pacific coast (and from east of the Mississippi will occur to move inward.  Cities in general will get too big and people will hate the crowding as well as the inner city economy.  By now suburbs will will become big cities and they will have suburbs of their own (for example Detroit).  New York City will be the one counter example, (and noone will know for sure why), but they'll be lots of people in upstate New York.  The midwest will lose electoral because the midwestern recession of '47, with the exception of Michigan because of the "rising Phoenix" auto industry when hover cubes as well as hover cars, minibusses, and air boats will dominate Michigan's market.  Florida will lose votes because the elderly will die off because they'll get $6.90 SS check in the great SS bankrupcy of 2034.  Cali will lose votes because people will get sick of overtaxation and earthquakes.  The New England shift out of Mass ans New Jersey will happen for many different reasons.  More on this subject if you care to ask.

233-Green Party
305-Constitution Party

yeah, there'll be some huge population shifts, to Michigan, to California, to Texas, to Hawai'i(28 votes)
This is a different alternate future than the one I previously had; a bit less realistic.

sorry, green party is red, constitution party is blue.

Communist dictator takes over, holds "free and fair elections".
Some states out west have a little bit more resistance to voting red.  Utah, opposes more than others because of the atheism that comes with communism.  The communists do not like having less than 90% of the vote, but they do little to stop these states because they're too far out of the way.
