It's far more common for Democrat run municipalities to create municipal cable and for Republicans to outlaw (or propose outlawing) municipal cable state wide.
It's not even politicizing it's a literal Republican talking point that the government should stay out of things and let free market competition sort these things out.
The problem with that of course is that they'd rather take money from some regional monopolies than actually create a free market system with reasonable restrictions on it.
