    Bad Orange man had to work hard to lose Orange County by 9 points in 2016. The last time a Dem won Orange county was FDR in 1936.

    So the 500% surge in voting is for Biden?

    Orange County today isn't the Orange County of even 10 years ago let alone 20 years ago. Any belief that Orange County remains some conservative/Republican strong hold died years ago. The demographics of the county have changed dramatically in the last 25 years and like most other wealthy areas in the state the voters have moved to the left.

    Exactly. It went blue mid terms 2018 which is why this news seemed somewhat relevant to discussions here about how Newsom and the left have pissed off the OC among other areas

    I voted today too. Not all early voting is the left

    If you have 5 times as many OC ballots coming in so far it is a legit question to wonder who they are for

    OC is still massively small government conservative but California legalized ballot harvesting. 100% they go into section 8 housing and collect ballots. I have friends that do it. It's not even a secret that "housing development" is code for "turn OC blue".

    And the OC GOP is getting in on the Harvest this time around

    No it's not. It's been trending left since the 2000s

    Looks like the Democrats are just as weak as ever there it's just not as strong GOP as it once was and now it's more independent.

    The GOP actually has to work to win elections there now but it's far from some lost cause like most of the urban coastal LA counties.

    In Washington, I voted today also, twice to be exact. I dropped my wife's and my envelopes off at the Pacific County courthouse this morning. No mail in for us - I wanted to vote this election
  • SledogSledog Member Posts: 34,266 Standard Supporter
    Being a former OC dude I can tell you that the 16 election was rigged. Ballot harvesting. Every single district suddenly turned blue. I called bullshit then and I still do! Dem's want ballot harvesting and there is a reason!
  • HouhuskyHouhusky Member Posts: 5,537
    yeah.... as an OG minion Im going to have to say.... I dont think this is a particularly good thing...

    A 500% increase isn't because of enthusiasm... its because shady shit and ballot harvesting is going on.

    Dude- all those Real Housewives of OC have illegals as pool boys and gardeners and housekeepers.....fill out ballot, get paid.

    Apologies to the Latinos in the USA legally and doing god's work. Props for not getting thrown in a cage at the border like those who can't follow the law.
