I love how weirdos on reddit and Lemmy act like gun control is an unpopular stance, when poll after poll shows that’s completely false. Whether you like it or not, most Americans in swing states want stronger gun control laws.
8 states didn’t adopt liberal concealed carry licensing policies since the early 00s. 42 states did.
Outside of those 8 states, 30 million people obtained licenses. The overwhelming majority in populous swing states. Their children grew up with armed parents. Their children are now of voting age.
The polls you’re talking about oversample the 8 blue states that didn’t adopt those policies. The DNC has utterly failed to recognize that the nation’s attitude on guns has shifted drastically over the past 25 years, especially in the swing states.
Which is exactly why states like Ohio and Florida have shifted from swing states to reliably red.
Your conclusion doesn’t make much sense, does it? You’re saying that voters in Ohio and Florida are single issue voters, and that one issue is guns? I just don’t believe it. But if you have some data to support your claim, by all means.

Ohio is reliably red because of stupid, easily influenced racists.

There’s no reason for guns to be treated with less scrutiny than cars.
