Not all older suburbs are liberal. The suburbs that have become liberal are also the sububs that have had the most chaneg in terms of racial and economic demographics. While prices in Sacramento have shot up 100% since 2000 for home in its suburbs, the racial and economic demographics of its older suburbs(CA-3) have largely remained the same in the last 20 years, the GOP performance isint quite what it was in the 80s, but still its solid Republican, and the old Sacramento suburbs almost went 70& for the recall last fall. Here in Columbus, the older suburbs are still pretty solidly Republican as well, what moved Columbus area towrds parity in national elections is a record high black turnout and a bigger liberal element in its urban core.
