Not really. The farm valleys are very, very red, while the major cities are very, very blue. I would say CA is a very politically polarized state.

Don't the farm valleys have much less people than the cities? The map might look as if the colors are balanced, but the population density matters.

The valleys are mostly irrelevant due to their lower population.

And that’s why both chambers of the state legislature are ~20% Republican?
