California, Illinois, and Maryland, have all had Republican governors over the last 10-15 years as well, though admittedly not as frequently.
I think it simply boils down to: Democratic voters are more willing to support Republicans on the local level if they like them than Republican voters are willing to support local Democrats.
And when I say "Democratic voters," I mean those in Lake, DuPage, Montgomery, Marin, Newton, Brookline, suburban LA, etc. White, educated Democratic voters.
