Fact
Please specify what the fact citation is for. Is it the concept that California is a blue state that you don't agree with or the reasons given? Generally, we prefer to have as few fact citations as possible unless the information is believed to be wrong. Learn together 14:47, 30 August 2007 (EDT)

Size of an economy
Is California really the 5th largest economy? How is that measured?
