All of the Republicans live in the central valley. Well, most of them, anyway.

That is a crock. Almost of the north state is solid red. The Mountain counties are Red counties too. The Sacramento valley always votes conservative. You may want to do a little more research before you make such stupid claims.

San Francisco?

Silicon Valley?

Sonoma?

And I remember driving up the coast to the Oregon border and seeing mostly hippies once they killed the logging industry.

Correct, conservative on the eastern slopes of the Sierra too, the area that most Californian's living to the west of the mountains think is part of Nevada.

You are absolutely right. Except, that the blue coastal areas have the larger population and they outvote you every time. Or, they engage in fraud. I’m a 3rd generation native of the San Joaquin Valley, but I haven’t lived there since 1972. I’ve been going back to deal with my 100 year old mother’s affairs, and I am appalled at how the Valley looks.

Ditches are dry. Reservoirs are almost dry. The rivers are nearly dry.

Yards are dead. Dust is everywhere. And then there are the homeless wandering the streets, panhandling and dumpster diving.

I’ve never seen anything like this in my life. My grandmother used to talk about the Depression and how “good men sold apples on the street”, or the jobless would sometimes come to her back door and ask for a meal which she provided. But, I doubt that even the Depression was as bad as my home town is now. At least then, the people asking for the handouts would offer work in exchange.
