Red States

"Red States" refers to U.S. states that predominantly support the Republican Party in elections, particularly evident during presidential races. This designation stems from the use of red to represent the GOP on electoral maps. Typically, Red States prioritize conservative values, including lower taxes, limited government, and traditional social issues. Commonly found in the South and Midwest, these states often resist progressive policies and champion individual liberties. The political landscape can vary widely from one state to another, but the term broadly encapsulates a trend of conservative governance and voter preferences.
