Not comparing CA. I’m comparing who votes for what in major population centers. And the trend clearly is major population centers such as Houston, Dallas, LA, SF, Denver, Chicago vote Democrat. This is trending the same way in AZ. In regards to major population centers, this trend is not disputable
Tell, how did Phoenix vote in 2016? Not the county, but the city.
Well ... I couldn’t find Phoenix stats but I do have Maricopa county 49.1% Trump. Phoenix / Mesa makes up most of the counties population anyway. Mohave county where I live was 73.7% Trump. I won’t argue that the major metro areas are full of demoncrats in any state. Phoenix being the 5/6 largest city in the country is in Mariposa county ... so is Mesa the second largest ... and the county went for Trump. In fact only 4 counties went for Hellary ... Pima/Santa Cruz (Tucson) Coconino (Flagstaff Sedona) and Apache. In Kalifornistan many central valley counties went for Hellary. Alpine Mono and Imperial counties also went for Hellary ... hardly large population centers. I’m glad there is still some sanity in King Kern Inyo Tulare and most of the North Eastern counties. So ... in most cases yes the major population centers can sway elections towards the demoncrats but there are MANY small counties in Kalif that also went for the demoncrats.
