You need people to move into the countryside, ideally where they aren’t selling land or building houses, and there’s no jobs. Plus it may well be an environment that will gerrymander the hell out of any such transplants if they happen to clump up.
I’m not saying it’s a bad plan, but it’s a hail-mary pass at best, and you need a lot of people to do this. Consider what the Libertarians tried with New Hampshire a while back: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_State_Project

That’s true, although there are a good number of purple metro areas in red states. That’s where I moved and it’s maybe not as effective as moving to the middle of nowhere, but it’s a hell of a lot better than casting another blue vote in the deep blue area I was raised in.
