Talk:2012 United States presidential election in California

Californians are watching the other debates and campaigns
My wife and I will be helping with this WP page. We are voters in California. Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 01:08, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Hannity interviewed Gingrich today, who said he sees a 'path to victory'. He notes that TX and CA vote late, and that California voting is by district, 'winner-take-all'. Read CA detailed rules at . "159 district delegates are to be bound to presidential contenders based on the primary results in each of the 53 congressional districts: each congressional district is assigned 3 National Convention delegates and the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in that district will receive all 3 of that district's National Convention delegates. 10 at-large delegates (10 base at-large delegates plus 0 bonus delegate) are to be bound to the presidential contender receiving the greatest number of votes in the primary statewide.  In addition, 3 party leaders, the National Committeeman, the National Committeewoman, and the chairman of the California's Republican Party, will attend the convention as unpledged delegates by virtue of their position."

Actually, Lynnette and I will be working in the California voting polls on June 5th Tuesday. We have the Ink-a-Vote system where (1) citizens mark a paper ballot through a plastic template for their party; (2) the ballots are read with optical recognition at election headquarters; and (3) any problems can be checked with the actual paper ballots. With both major parties watching, it seems pretty reliable and honest. Let's hope so, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 23:32, 24 May 2012 (UTC) PS: Of course, to please Democrats, we will not ask for a photo ID.
 * I'm thinking of adding a sentence (with reference) about CA being 'winner-take-all' by district, (not by state). You will find discussion at Talk:Republican_Party_presidential_primaries,_2012 — See what you think, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 13:27, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Results by City Needs Colors Fixed
The winners for each city in this section is all correct, but many of the colors are either missing or incorrect. Could someone please fix the formatting of the colors? As well as many of the colors surrounding the winners being missing or wrong, Orange and Nevada counties are blue when they should be red. 2600:387:6:80D:0:0:0:A1 (talk) 23:51, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
