Sad to say... most of the Conservatives moved out of there and what you have left is a majority of brainwashed, entitlement seeking socialists. I hate to say it, but CA HAS to CRASH and burn before a change takes place....
Has anyone actually looked at what will happen to the people in California if the state does “Crash and burn”? We can say that people would really be hurting but exactly what will happen?
Really it’s a couple of counties like San Francisco and Los Angles that control the State. They should just be their own States and leave the rest of us alone.
You’re right. It doesn’t have to be that way, but, that’s how most people learn, the hard way. Just like a drunk who keeps denying he/she has a problem, until that person hits rock bottom or dies. If it doesn’t kill them and it will unless that person changes, when they do change, they come back stronger and better than ever.
I was one of those conservatives who left the state. Now I am in PA, and we are finally coming around, at least for this election cycle. I see the “Big One” hitting CA before they are a red state again.
Voters for Whitman were those most concerned for the economy in the next year and those who are personally worse off financially. White women and men voted for Whitman. If you are old enough to remember Gov. Jerry Brown Part 1, you were least likely to vote for him.
Last I looked Orange County had less than 40% turnout, below the state average, so those Republicans stayed home.
L.A., the middle coast and Bay Areas once again sealed our fate. That only the GOP AG candidate, likely because he was from L.A., could be competitive paints a grim picture. Everyone else basically lost by 10%. Meg & Carly could've done that without spending half what they did.
Potentially far worse than Brown is that 50% budget approval.
It’s SF and So Cal.
We’re mighty conservative in the Big Valley.
