Why are so many democrats leaving the blue states and looking for the better life in red states with the same types of people they voted against???

I know a couple who lived in California, the woman is from Oklahoma and lived there for over 40 years. They decided to leave a year ago and put their almond farm & home on the market for sale, sold within 2 weeks, they bought a house online and got the hell out within about 3 weeks after that. They are conservatives and were fed up to the gills.
