All you mention is considered Southern California.

Now and most of my life I lived in Southern Oregon and Northern California (AKA State of Jefferson) most of my life. For a few years I live in Orange County and LA, and for a year I also lived in Sacramento.

The area around Red Bluff and all North have nothing in common with Southern California. Just Like Roseberg and all of Oregon south of it have nothing in common with Portland/Eugene.

In that entire area there is only about one county that went Blue in the last half dozen election cycles.

I wouldn't say that. Orange County is, or at least was when I lived there years ago, very conservative. Other than the coastal regions, the vast majority of California is red. The coastal cities simply have more population behind them.

Tulare county is central cali aka around the bakersfield, visalia area, aka the armpit of cali. So I have two areas of cali I have been well exposed to to your one.

Mind you northern cali also has a lot of deep blue as well, it suffers from an issue central and southern do, the inland is more conservative while the coast is very liberal, this is why the state always talks about splitting, the minority of land mass controls the vast majority of the landmass, because the populations majority is along the coast, not the vast inland.
