Republican Governors are leading the way when it comes to the nations recovery from Covid-19 while states ran by Democrats imposed the strictest lockdowns destroying most small businesses and jobs.

The Conservative Committee to Unleash Prosperity released two charts illustrating state unemployment rates, color-coded by party control. In these charts you can see that states ran by Republicans had the lowest unemployment rates, while states governed by Democrats suffered the most.

The Federalist reports:

California, ruled by Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, who locked his state down into oblivion while blowing off his own rules, has run the West Coast paradise into 9 percent unemployment, the third-highest in the country. Meanwhile, California’s kingmakers are fleeing in droves for red states that foster friendlier business climates, such as Arizona, Texas, and Florida.

New York, on the other hand, is not far ahead of California’s unemployment rate. There, Emperor Andrew Cuomo has run the state to 8.2 percent unemployment. Thanks to Cuomo, together with Democratic New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, residents are fleeing just as they did in California, taking many jobs and taxpayer dollars with them.

In contrast, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has been vilified to no end by the corporate media for remaining light on lockdowns, has lead the Sunshine State to just more than 6 percent unemployment, below the national rate of 6.7 percent, while welcoming blue state migrants. Comparing the end result shows that Florida, despite lifting lockdowns early and remaining open, has fared far better than New York. Florida has seen 1,203 deaths per million as compared to the Empire State’s 2,207 per million.

South Dakota, meanwhile, governed by Republican Kristi Noem, who never implemented a statewide stay-home order, enjoys just 3 percent unemployment.

Many people have suffered and continue to suffer in blue controlled states which makes it no surprise that they are leaving in droves for red states. We can only hope that the ones fleeing these blue states that voted for these democrat representatives don’t bring their ideological mindsets with them.
