The California GOP will not be getting “new blood”. It is going to become a bigger version of Connecticut, Vermont or Massachussettes. Where even if they manage to find a candidate they will be leftists too.
The CA GOP’s problems are caused in large part to the horrible gerrymandered districts, which allow the most moonbat libs to get elected. Google CA-23 if you want to see maybe the worst gerrymandered district in the country. By virtue of two Props though, this should end by end of this.
Eastern CA, big parts of SD, Orange and Ventura counties are still Reagan country. Further, in 2008, we passed Prop 8, in May 2009 we defeated 1a (which would’ve allowed a sales tax increase to continue for two more years, this year we defeated an $18 per car tax for state parks and defeated raising taxes on business.
It’s going to take a lot of time to rebuild the GOP here, but it’s possible.
