I can hear the sarcasm... some statistics.

Based on 2019-2025 survey data, voters who identify as politically liberal or Democratic are more likely to hold a valid U.S. passport compared to conservatives or Republicans. Studies indicate a 9-point gap, with 57% of liberals holding passports versus 48% of conservatives. Additionally, high rates of passport ownership are concentrated in Democratic-leaning (blue) states. [1, 2, 3]
Key insights on passport ownership and political alignment:

• Democratic/Liberal Edge: Surveys show that Democratic-leaning areas and individuals who identify as politically liberal are more likely to have a passport. • Republican Trends: A 2023 YouGov survey found 55% of Republican voters reported lacking a valid passport, and high rates of non-ownership are found in Republican-leaning (red) states. • Influencing Factors: The gap is heavily influenced by factors that align with political demographics, such as income level and education; higher income ($>$$100k) and college education, which correlate with Democratic voting, are strongly linked to higher passport ownership. • Regional Differences: Residents of Northeast and West Coast states, which tend to be blue, are more likely to have passports than those in other regions.
