At what point is America no longer a safe place for me to live?

There are slightly more Democrats than Republican in TX, 40% Democrats vs. 39% Republicans. The main thing keeping Republicans so strongly in power there is the dark art of gerrymandering.

And voter suppression.  Can't forget that.  They're going out of their way to make it more difficult for hispanic, black or young people to vote.  

I also worry that with the GOP operating in such blatant bad faith, the result of Moore vs Harper could make voting in America as impactful as voting in North Korea or Russia.  I mean, the state legislatures of many of those swing states were republican controlled and they tried to help Trump.  The only thing stopping them was that there wasn't a mechanism for the state legislature to overturn elections they don't like.  That could be changing which could result in America turning into a one party state.
