The Silicon Valley is not what I would call a conservative stronghold. Perhaps liberalism has morphed into libertarianism there—government should help entrepreneurs, or get out of the way.
I tend to agree with this statement taken from the OPs link.

As far as the premise of this thread, Northern California is a larger corporate center than Southern California-but SoCal is still BY FAR where most of the people are and thus where all the elections are won or lost.

However if we believe state estimates, we should see near parity in the populations of the two regions in the coming 3 decades. YIKES.

To be honest, I don't like that one bit.

You're saying that the state is projecting the population of Northern California to be the same as Southern California? I haven't heard that.

This LA Times article based on State Projections says SoCal will grow by 12 Million btwn 2000 and 2050, if that is the case, then by the same projection, Norcal is going to grow by a whopping 14 Million...or a 100% increase.

2050
Southern California 31 Million
Northern California 29 Million

Not really a fan of this happening to be honest.

The 100 Mile radius around SF will have over 25 Million people. That is mindnumbing.

That would be insane. NorCal is a really diverse place to live, so I can see it happening. It will likely depend heavily on how the economy recovers though.

18M already said it: SoCal still holds most of the votes.
