So when was the last time California actually elected a Republican governor?

Republicans have held the governship more often than the Democrats for the last 40+ years:

DEMOCRAT Davis elected 1998 (hopefully only one term!)
REPUBLICAN Wilson 1990-1998
REPUBLICAN Deukmejian 1982-1986
DEMOCRAT Brown, Jr. 1974-1982
REPUBLICAN Reagan 1966-74
DEMOCRAT Brown, Sr. 1958-66

So, for 16 of the last 20 years, Republicans have held the governorship. Hmmmmmm.

There is a gap in your table of 1986 to 1990!

Who was Governor then?
