I usually try and stay away from political speculation, and read about this one stating Biden will win, or Trump will see a landslide for him on election nighty etc, but I see what is happening here in California concerning the popularity of Trump, and I feel California may be electing the first republican president since Ronald Reagan.
Why do I say this?
To my knowledge Biden has not visited this state once, because dems think the state is "in the bag for dems", so no need for Biden to campaign here.

I am seeing a tremendous amount of people holding Trump rallies, which never happened in the last election cycle.

Californians are coming out in large numbers in support of Trump, and that did not happen before the last election in 2016
It would not surprise me if Trump wins in California.
Ordinary people are taking to the streets in support of Trump.
All this is new to this area, and it tells me many are going to be voting for Trump this election, that failed to do so in 2016.

I have a liberal friend in Oklahoma. She's a librarian and most librarians tend to be liberal. There are a lot of libraries there. Will OK go blue?

You really think California would flip? wow.

Election analytics website FiveThirtyEight in 2020 identified the states of Arizona, Georgia, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin as "perennial" swing states that have regularly seen close contests over the last few presidential campaigns.



I am in NY,..it's gonna go blue as usual. Those States up there are the ones to watch.

I live in Riverside county, formerly Orange county, and my area is awash with Trump signs and banners. I believe I've seen three Biden yard signs.

I posted the question with a poll on the California forum about a year ago, and the poll actually voted California in favor of going red but only 300-ish voters participated. There has been a lot of fail going on in California with rolling blackouts, free care and legal representation for illegals, taxes taxes taxes, the homeless mess, and more, which has many fed up with the state democrat mis-management.
That said, I believe the state is too far gone to illegals (probably voting) and corruption in favor of democrats to go red again, but you never know.

Trump is not a great or even good President. The only way he wins is if Fox News convinces 49 percent or more of the electorate that Socialism is a serious threat. You see many of us are aware that Socialism was defined in the mid eighteen hundreds. The formal definition of Socialism is that the state owns all of heavy industry. Fox News doesn't get to redefine a term that we have been conditioned to fear since the fifties. Fox promotes the notion that any progressive accomplishments at all are Socialist. I can hardly believe that if Americans are given the right to take two weeks a year by law is Socialist.


The new definition of Socialism is the only way that Trump wins, that is if his minions at Fox and other "conservative" web sights convince you that two weeks of vacation by law is a serious threat to conservative values.

California will record one of the highest percentages of Biden vote in the country. WAKE UP!

I’ll give Californians props for being bold. Around here people are afraid to put up Trump signs for fear of retaliation.
