California
CALIFORNIA
Biden – 11.1m (63.5%)
 Trump – 6.0m (34.3%)
First takeaway on CA – although CA trended D in reg by 2%, Trump pushed it slightly right even in certified totals. This is only done with winning low-propensity voters, registered Ds, indies, especially working class Hispanics in So. CA.
Trump gained 1.52mm votes, 580k more than record GOP gain, but Ds have DOUBLED vote total since 2000, with Biden nearly 3mm over Obama ’08.
These are worst for excess Biden votes as predicted by Party ID, Pop. Growth, and Reg.
 Alameda – 50k
 Contra Costa – 50k
 Fresno – 30k
 Kern – 20k
 L.A. – 500k
 Orange – 100k
 Riverside – 80k
 San Bernardino – 40k
 San Diego – 80k
 Santa Clara – 60k
 Ventura – 25k
Proportionally, L.A., Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego absolutely dwarf other counties for new reg voters. Are these phantom factories? Est. 1.346mm excess Biden votes, would put state at 23.3% margin if only excess votes considered. I believe CA to be much tighter.
