Graham Is Aiming To Turn The GOP Into The Party Of Gun Control

Gun owners should defect and go third party. If we started just with the states with majority gun ownership: we'd have twenty-four electoral votes. If we included states with 40% and above, that would increase to seventy-six votes.
Most of these states are Republican, but New Mexico surprisingly has 49.9% gun ownership, and Hawaii has 45.1%, which means it could also hurt the Democrats, if only a little. The purpose of a "Gun Owner's Party" (also GOP) wouldn't be to win elections, but rather to scare the GOP, and provide for a formal voting bloc that can support other third parties should the GOP not back down.
I'm not really seriously advocating for this, it's more of a thought experiment, but I'd definitely join a third party for gun owners, so long as it remained a single issue party.
