It was obviously the last hurrah for the GOP at the presidential level.  Besides the Reagan coattail effect (being his home state) and the possibility that many voters stayed home since the race was called prior to 11 eastern time, what enabled George Bush to hang on there? Obviously, LA County was a far difference place demographically then compared to now.

The old adage for CA'88 was "the final gift from Reagan".
