California To FLIP Red In 2026?

Polls and pollsters be damned, however, positive reporting is worth at least a cursory review.

A new poll released late last week suggests Californians may have finally had enough of the crime syndicate control in the Golden State.

This from 100percentfedup.com.

The statewide survey from DecipherAi, conducted by national pollster David Wolfson, said nearly 50% of likely voters would consider a Republican governor.

Per KABC:

New polling released shows voters across California are feeling what is being called “the Trump Effect,” rejecting years of [radical Leftist] policies.

Nearly half of likely California voters say they would consider voting for a Republican for Governor in 2026 (Republican party voter registration in California is just 25%).

Polling was conducted in California over March 6th to 9th of likely Nov. 2026 voters by David Wolfson, a national Pollster, and Faculty Lecturer at Columbia University’s Political Analytics Graduate Program sponsored by the media firm Madison McQueen.

Other stunning findings show California’s Leftist Leaders are out touch:

– 83% of voters said gas prices are too high in California,

– 73% support fully funding anti-crime Prop. 36, which State Democrat Leaders have refused to do,

– 72% feel homelessness still is a big problem after years of Democrat control Sacramento,

– 71% believe the Democrats in charge have not addressed the state’s high cost of living,

– 69% think Democrats in Sacramento have not done enough to bring down energy/utility costs,

– 62% support a “full independent investigation” of the recent Los Angeles Wildfires, and

– Only 24% of Californians think males (transgender) should compete in female sports.

Owen Brennan, president of Madison McQueen, according to KABC, said:

Voters are increasingly concerned about the direction of California under one-party rule.

Further:

On issue after issue, voters are seeing their quality of life fall and their cost-of-living rise.

Newsweek reported:

California has historically been a heavily [Leftist] state, selecting a liberal in every presidential election since 1992. But recent polls have indicated the tide could be turning in the Golden State. It comes after the state shifted toward the GOP by 12 points in 2024 compared to 2020, with Donald Trump increasing his vote share in nearly every county in the state. The Republicans also flipped three seats in the state Legislature last year.

If the [Leftist crime syndicate] loses ground in California, it could reshape the state’s leadership as early as 2026, when the next governor will be elected and most of California’s state Legislature will be up for election.

Amid the GOP’s recent success in the state, the California Republican Party is now seeking to capitalize on that momentum and break the [Leftist] supermajority, California Senate Republican Leader Brian Jones told Newsweek.

Jones said:

Our mission is clear: break the Democratic supermajority and Fix California. As Senate minority leader, that means flipping four Senate seats next election. Californians are fed up with one-party rule.

A supermajority means holding at least two-thirds of the seats in a legislative body. The communists/globalists currently hold 90 seats across California’s state Assembly and Senate, amounting to 75 percent of the 120 seats.

This means Republicans need to pick up seven seats in the Assembly and four in the Senate to break the Leftist supermajority.

Assembly Minority Leader James Gallagher of Yuba City told CalMatters:

Republicans could target as many as eight Assembly districts in the Central Valley and Southern California to flip next year.

To do that, newly elected California Republican Party Chair Corrin Rankin said at a party convention in Sacramento last weekend:

[T]he party will be going on the offense and expanding efforts to convert voters in Democratic strongholds like Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area.

God speed to California Republicans and the growth of Conservatism in the state.
