He carried LA County both times which is unprecedented for a Republican. I get he was from California but this is LA County we’re talking about not San Diego, or Orange. They won’t just embrace someone who was known to start the rise of conservatism just cause he’s from that state. Gerald ford and George H.W who both won California lost LA County.

Los Angeles used to have the reputation of a conservative city.  That changed in the 1960s and 1970s, much moreso in the 1990s.  Goldwater performed better in LA County than he did nationally.

What caused the drastic change in the 90s?
