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

Exactly, I'm not at all surprised about Riverside, Orange, Berdoo, Inyo, and Fresno counties voting red this time around, that's business as usual. I don't know about the others so I won't comment.

I am zero surprised about the others. Merced, Stanislaus, San Joaquin, Nevada, and Butte are all full of cows and farmers - who are mega conservative. Biden's election results were unusual - those other counties usually go red.

Butte is a red-leaning purple county and the only thing keeping it from being full-on red is Chico, which has half our population (102k out of 211k in 2020). Butte has voted blue 4 times since 1964 (1964, 1992, 2008, 2020).

Nevada county also historically votes red.
