Much like Gore in 2000 with TN, Nixon hadn't won an election on his own in the state in 10 years.

The rest went as could be expected in California before Reagan/Bush alienated the state with the far-right insanity [yes Reagan won huge, but there's a good reason Dukakis almost won, and Reagan did worse against Mondale than Carter]

Sitting presidents always do worse in their home states than in their first election.
