Bush also increased his share of the Hispanic vote to 42%... If the GOP can continue that going forward it would put Cali back in play.
Was that 42% here in California? Thanks.

I'd still like to see an explanation for this:
County Name Nevada

100% Rpt'g
65,411 Reg'd Voters
94,281 Ballots Cast
144.1% Turnout
(Nov) 2 8:11pm First Report Date-Time
(Nov) 3 2:15am Latest Report Date-Time
F Report Type*
County Status As of Nov 4, 2004 at 11:15 am
How did it change in 2 hours?
138 Total Precincts
138 Precincts Rpt'g
100% Rpt'g
65,411 Reg'd Voters
47,032 Ballots Cast
71.9% Turnout

Growing up in the San Joaquin valley and currently residing in Merced county, it is plain to me that we get a bad rap due to the liberal Bay Area and LaLa Land. If you go to Hannity's site he has a map that includes every county in the country in red and (very little) blue. It is quite impressive and shows CA to be mostly conservative with the exceptions of the aforementioned liberal areas.

Another reason why Calif could go red in 2008 is that a lot of the recent voting was driven more by anti-Bush sentiments rather than anti-R feelings. If the Repubs nominated someone like Guilianni or McCain, Calif would definitely be in play.

I would campaign and donate against McCain. Don't go there.

10.2% is the margin that sum of all the leftist presidential candidates had over the sum of all the "right" presidential candidates for 2004.
13.9% is the margin that sum of all the leftist presidential candidates had over the sum of all the "right" presidential candidates for 2000.
So the margin is shrinking

I hope you're right, but I doubt it. Bush still underperformed with whites, and still got clobbered by Hispanics.
Hispanics in Calif seem like those in Illinois and NY; i.e. they are liberal in party preference.

It used to be that San bernardino, Riverside, and Orange counties pluralities for Republicans could balanced out Los Angeles County for the Democrats, but not suite anymore.
The Central Valley counties continue to be a bastion of Republican strength, but similarly do not counterbalance the Bay area. Somehow the Republican have to learn how to win back the business-oriented south Bay area (Silicon Valley) and cut into Democratic margins in Los Angeles County.
To: weegee
I'd like the answer, too, even if the majority of voters went for Bush. 144 % turnout even for a "preliminary" count needs to be explained. Almost 30,000 votes counted suddenly gone by morning needs to be explained.
I haven't heard from the Sec of State yet, nor the local newspaper - http://www.theunion.com/.

San Francisco County = San Francisco City. There is no hope for those folks. Fortunately, their population has been decreasing.
To: lemura
I don't think there is a chance California will go red in the next 4 years unless San Francisco and Los Angeles Counties fall into the Pacific. That said I think the only demographic that will hurt the GOP is the latino's. According to Barone when you get away from the coastal areas they are not so Democratic. They actually usually vote Republican and they are now at 48% of the population and unlike the coastal areas are growing. Also the Republican's have a higher fertility rate then the Dem's, who are probably just buggering each other.

I would not vote for Giuliani, under any circumstances, but would probably vote, very reluctantly, for McCain.
But, I sure wouldn't be fired up about it.

Your new tagline should drive liberals even more insane.

Uh, no.
California is already decidedly liberal, and the next four years will only bring more minorities to the state. And in case you didn't know, minorities tend to vote Democrat.
You can break down by county all you want... the demographics show that the notion of California becoming a 'red state' is a silly one.
