They have that state wrapped up and on the shelf
And now you know how they accomplished that, in the state that brought us Nixon and Reagan and which passed by overwhelming numbers a proposition that limits the state's ability to raise property taxes.
There are lots of fruits and nuts in California but I assure you, as a lifelong resident, it isn't 65:35 in favor of the nuts. There may be a heavy Democrat bent and in recent years the lines have been blurred. GOP doesn't know how to talk to Californians. Californians want government out of their bedrooms, and out of their pocketbooks alike. But the Dems have done a great job of demagoguery against GOP due to it's support by evangelicals. A more libertarian, local-control oriented approach to governance (and campaigning) would move the needle here.
I don’t know how you could live in that state given the cost of living, the absolute theft of the products of your labor through taxation in all its forms, wild fires, power outages, overbearing regulation, home prices...ect.
Why?
