      Well that’s unsurprising since they have the largest population and trends usually scale.

      I think it is important to note they have been moving more toward republican votes over the last presidential elections, which if anything shows why Newsom is a symptom, not the cause–and I say that not liking the dude.

      Yes, and they also have the largest population of Democrat voters, and most other demographics you could name.

      You have to declare in Texas IF you want to mail-in vote in the primary. If you vote in person, you can skip party declaration and just ask for the desired ballot when you sign in.

      (2016 was the only time I had to call myself a D. I still get their spam.)

      Yep - just drive through San Bernardino. Maga country, and yes, it’s not a very nice place to boot.
