What is a Republican state? How they vote for president, who is governor, who controls the state assembly? Those things have zero to do with effecting homicide rates, anyway. A person who did not have an extreme bias would easily figure that out.
The bulk of any state's homicides are committed in densely populated urban areas. Who controls those areas determine how crimes are dealt with. That usually falls on the Mayor and sometimes city council depending on how things are set up. The police commissioner serves at the discretion of the aforementioned and can be fired at anytime. That is usually the same for the police chief. So the Mayor dictates how the city is policed. When a criminal is arrested it is up to the district attorney's office to bring charges and prosecute. The district attorney is an elected official.
So their you go, whether state is red or blue as you define it, that has nothing to do with crime and punishment as a whole, it is who runs the states
largest cities. look for an R or D after the Mayor's and DA's names.
Funny you are constantly proven to be talking out your ass, yet you always think you are right. Are all floppy headed Canadians that way?
