I have Alameda, mostly, but it's sort of a pain to match precincts with cities.  Any city you want in specific?

Brentwood: 57-41 Obama
Clayton: 55-43 Obama
Concord: 66-31 Obama
Danville: 55-43 Obama
El Cerrito: 85-12 Obama
Hercules: 77-21 Obama
Lafayette: 67-30 Obama
Martinez: 68-29 Obama
Moraga: 63-35 Obama
Oakley: 61-37 Obama
Orinda: 68-31 Obama

I'll check 'em soon.

Alamo, Blackhawk and Soquel are all CDPs, not municipalities.  Since none of them are surrounded by incorporated areas, I doubt the precinct boundaries perfectly fit the CDPs.  I'll also have to find a map, obviously, but I'll figure it out.

I think I already checked Blackhawk, but I don't remember what it was.

Oh, neat.  I'd been adding things up manually Sad  Thanks, Torie.

To-do list: Blackhawk CDP (Contra Costa); Alamo CDP and American Canyon (Napa); Santa Cruz, Soquel CDP and Watsonville (Santa Cruz).

Short answer:
Alamo: Obama 50.2%, McCain 47.9%
Blackhawk: About Obama +9
Diablo: About Obama +3

American Canyon: Napa County sucks.

The following don't include write-ins.
Capitola: Obama 77.6%, McCain 19.9%
Santa Cruz: Obama 86.6%, McCain 10.8%
Scotts Valley: Obama 63.7%, McCain 34.3%
Watsonville: Obama 80.5%, McCain 17.9%
Unincorporated Santa Cruz County: Obama 74.4%, McCain 23.1%

Assuming SCC's precinct maps are up-to-date, Soquel was about Obama 78.1%, McCain 19.3%.

Long answer:
Blackhawk is tough.  It's easy enough to identify the Blackhawk Country Club precincts.  The developments outside are more of an issue.  Blackhawk Country Club voted 55-44 McCain.  Blackhawk proper (excluding the country club) voted about 58-40 Obama.  Overall, I think Obama probably carried Blackhawk something like 54%-55% to 44%-45%.  Depends on how many development precincts I missed.

Diablo is the same deal, but even worse.  It's slightly more Republican all-around.  My guess is that it voted Obama by a few points overall, probably something like Obama 49%-51% to McCain 47%-49%.  Also depends on how you define Diablo vs. Danville.

The county defines Alamo precincts as being 332-340.  Collectively, Obama carried these precincts 50.2% to 47.9%.

Napa County (American Canyon) has results up on their web site, but the file is a 404.

"Soquel CDP" is defined as Santa Cruz County precincts 1040, 1041, 1061, 1062 and 2048.
