In a surprising turn of events in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, Donald Trump has made significant inroads in California, traditionally a Democratic stronghold. Several counties in California, including Orange County, have flipped from blue to red, signaling a potential 'red wave'. Trump's victory in the Inland Empire, encompassing Riverside and San Bernardino counties, marks the first time a Republican presidential candidate has carried these areas since George W. Bush in 2004. This shift is attributed to Trump's appeal to voters in economically prosperous regions. Republicans are already celebrating this unexpected turn in the election.
