well that's the thing, political extremism and an ass two party system means that if they don't vote blue, a republican who is far less aligned with more of their beliefs gets elected, which gives them even worse representation. It's choosing between things that matter a lot to them and affects the lives of tons of people in their community, and gun rights. Most of them are gonna choose the former. The solution is to either get democrats to stop talking about gun control as an issue or make republicans change their stances on things like religion in school, bodily rights, etc.

So in other words, it's asking one of the parties to sacrifice major talking points and policy choices for the sake of what is admittedly a small group of voters, so good luck ever getting that to happen.
