Over the past 18 years, the U.S. has admitted over roughly 700,000-800,000 citizens into our voting population every year, with a few years reaching 1 million.
Between 1989-2013, the U.S. has admitted 25.3 million legal permanent residents.
During a comparable 25-year period at the height of the Great Wave, from 1900-1924, only 16.8 million green cards were issued. The current wave has been 66% larger than the Great Wave in terms of green cards issued.
While the immigration wave of the modern era was 66% larger than the Great Wave, the “naturalization wave” underway is 329% greater.
3.52 million immigrants have been naturalized in California since 1996, roughly one-fourth of the total naturalizations nationwide.
According to a 2012 survey, current immigrants favor Democrats over Republicans by almost 4-1.
A number of critical states have doubled or tripled their immigrant population over the past few decades, which in turn has helped Democrats create a “blue firewall” in the Electoral College.
