Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush campaigning in California

The 1992 United States presidential election in California took place on November 3, 1992, and was part of the 1992 United States presidential election. Voters chose 54 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president. This was the first time that California had voted for a Democratic presidential nominee since Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1964 election, and Clinton's win in this state reflected its changed status from reliably Republican to decisively Democratic to the present. California maintains the largest number of electoral votes in the Electoral College.

It was the first occasion San Diego County had voted for a Democrat since Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1944, and the last time any of the following counties have given a plurality to the Democratic nominee: Del Norte, Siskiyou, Tehama, Plumas, Tuolumne and Mariposa.^[1]Ross Perot gained a plurality in Trinity County, the only time a third-party candidate has carried any county in the state since Robert La Follette Sr. in 1924.

California had voted increasingly Democratic despite Reagan’s decisive wins in his home state during the 1980 and 1984 elections. Changing demographics made the state much closer and Michael Dukakis only narrowly fell short of winning California in 1988. The early 1990s recession was blamed on George H. W. Bush, causing a rise in unemployment in construction and real estate. This ultimately gave Bill Clinton a double digit victory in California, despite Bush’s victory just four years earlier.
