They did a really good job on ads. Don’t look up how much they spent just on fooling the population.

Sad. Though, I'm not with the others willing to just blame ads nor "taxes = bad" folk... there's just too many people who are the Gavin Newsom type. I'm honestly not at all surprised, every state is technically purple, including ours.

At least everyone I've met today has been so positive and happy, it's a real change from the Los Angeles I'm used to.

Edit: still 6 million votes uncounted, including mine. AP decided to wait on calling 40, 41, and 42 but it doesn't look good. LA is very pro-40, but neighboring Orange County is the opposite. God I hate them, lol.

Also Angeleno, that's been my perception as well. In general it was a good election and we're better off than before.
