Why It Matters: How Trump's election will impact San Diego's Republican Party
Republicans across the country are pleased with last week’s election. Donald Trump is going back to the White House.
But in San Diego County, the Republican Party could be headed for a new low.
In the San Diego County District 3 election, Kevin Faulconer ran seven points ahead of Trump. But he essentially needed to do twice as well as he did. Trump seems to be slightly more popular in San Diego than he was in 2020. But it appears voter antipathy toward him is going to continue to hurt local Republicans for years to come.
