Why did this area not experience a huge shift towards the Democrats unlike the other SoCal districts in 2016? Donald Trump won it by a resounding 15 point margin; what makes it so different?
I'm from San Diego originally and still have friends in the area. My stab at this Q:
Heavy pop of military retirees
Immigration hardliners
The young people moving in tend to be more conservative than the yuppies in the inner suburbs
SD County was for decades a GOP stronghold nearly on the level of OC - these things take time
