There's a lot of chaos for people right now, and people are understandably extremely worried about, well, basic government breakdowns and preparing for that. The people who are truly vulnerable will not respond to this because they might be fleeing a Republican controlled state to a Democrat controlled state or other plans that could put them at risk for systemic harm. Operational security requires people in those positions and their allies to not reveal plans like leaving, to prevent harm.
