The air is too polluted.

A few still use the straw brooms.
But with the abundance of the nylon and plastic bristled brooms, many witches have given up using them because of the synthetic and poly-vinyl-chloride scares of the 80's and 90's.
Witches tend to be very environmentally conscious.
I hear they re-cycle too.
Some others have gone for the battery power hand vacs. They provide a more comfortible ride and are less bulky to pack. Black & Decker makes a nice one.

we never did--we used flying potions to fly, the broom was used to sweep our tracks out of the sky
Actually, the myth about witches riding brooms evolved from an old pagan fertility ritual that involved straddling a broom and jumping over a bonfire

Technology evolved.
Witches used brooms hundreds of years ago, because there hadn't been cool inventions like vacuums (which turned out to be too heavy), and more recently, the swiffer.
I see witches on swiffers all the time. When they use the swiffer dusters, it looks like they are flying on their own, but as we all know, THATS not possible.
lol

Witches don't fly on brooms and they never did.

There's no such things as witches. While we're on the subject, Santa Claus doesn't exist either, or the Easter bunny. Sorry kids.

Paperwork.
Nick W is a silly man. Who else brings me my presents, and eggs, and why has my dad got seven reindeer in the backgarden?
