Lassen County went from going for Meg Whitman 50-42 to going for Kashkari 67-33. Wonder what Brown did to piss those people off.
They realized he was just like other modern Democrats.This year's result isn't the surprising one. I really can't quite figure out why Lassen County was so close in 2010. Brown's performance this year is quite similar to Obama both times, where the statewide margins are all comparable. The 2010 result was not only anomalous for its current tendencies (as one of the most Republican counties in California), but the 2010-2014 swing is by far the largest of any county in the state (and in the opposite direction). Why would Lassen County have been the sole exception to typical partisan leanings back then?
