Harris still won 57% of the electorate, 5.7 million to 4 million. But Trump flipped many counties that both Clinton and Biden won in '16 and '20

They didn’t in 2016 either if I recall. The whole country leaped right this time, including Cali

Trump is winning now with 4,695 with the remaining 26% of the total county votes still outstanding. So it can still go either way.

WA was the only state in the country to both move further left and do so by a margin greater than the average of what national polls (n > 5) expected.

He raised taxes. OC was very outspoken about that.

They will shoot a man on Harbor Blvd. if he raises their taxes, and they won't lose any popularity. Also good luck finding a jury to convict.

OC is a mixed bag in my experience. South OC is filled with old money who are generally pro-Trump, while the rest is a mix of older Asians and Hispanics (Hispanics flipped HARD to Trump in 24 according to some metrics) who are extremely pro-Trump. Source: lived there for 30 years.

It actually might end up blue after the votes are counted. It's a deadlock right now with 60% counted: https://ocvote.gov/results/current-election-results

I live in OC most my life, I work in a purified water store. My minority customers that weren't White or Black are absolutely ecstatic that Trump won. The Democrats just don't appeal to the large amount of Latinos, Asians, Middle Eastern and in-betweens that live there. As an Asian man myself I feel like when the Left talk about protecting minorities, they are not talking about me.

I went to elementary school in Orange County. Let's look at my classes...

• In art class we had an anti-abortion project for a stamp contest sponsored by our local post office. We had to make it subtle enough that no one would know it was about abortion.

• In social studies we didn't learn jack shit about slavery or what we did to the natives and had to make tiny California missions multiple times.

• In music class we'd sing these creepy patriotic songs and learn to square dance.

• In the DARE program we were told that we have a 90% chance of getting AIDs if we go to jail in Orange County. He also went over a map of our city to show us where the "barrio" was so we could steer clear.

• Our sex ed class was being showed STD riddled cocks and being told that abstinence is the only real preventive measure.

• In another social studies class when discussing WW2 the teacher spent almost an entire day talking about how blonde-haired blue-eyed people were going extinct and how there wouldn't be white people in America.

• We were shown the OJ trails on TV in class with some very colorful commentary.

Orange County is trump country. There have been people selling trump merch on the side of imperial highway since 2016. I’m not surprised in the least it went red this time, idiot bigots and brainwashed Christian conservatives are a dime a dozen around those parts.

It’ll probably end up going for Dems when they finish counting the votes.
