Orange County, traditionally considered by liberals to be somewhat conservative compared to all other urban locations in the left-wing Blue state California, is the third most populous county in California.[1] It was created in 1889 and was given the name for its extensive orange groves.[2]
As an urban area, Orange County has been shifting increasingly liberal. In 2016, the county voted for a Democrat for president for the first time since 1936, and in 2018, the county became entirely represented in Congress by Democrats.[3] In 2019, registered Democrats in the county had grown to outnumber registered Republicans.[4]
