The recent revelation that the percentage share of registered Republican voters has increased across all of California’s counties, assembly, state senate, and congressional districts has sparked surprise and raised eyebrows.
Rob Pyres, research director for the California Target Book, confirmed this notable trend, signaling a potential shift in the state’s political landscape.
What makes this development even more remarkable is the context behind it. Fix California, led by Ric Grenell, embarked on a mission in July of 2021 to scrutinize the voter rolls in all 58 counties of the state.

This initiative came in response to concerns raised about voting and registration irregularities in California’s November 3, 2020 election.
The Globe reported extensively on these irregularities, echoing findings from the Election Integrity Project California. These reports underscored the need for comprehensive examination and potential reforms to address the issues observed during the election.
The fact that the percentage of registered Republican voters has risen in every corner of the state suggests a concerted effort by Fix California and other similar organizations to engage with voters and bolster Republican registration numbers.
This shift could have significant implications for California’s political landscape, potentially leading to increased competition and a more balanced representation across party lines.
It’s a development that highlights the importance of ongoing efforts to ensure the integrity and fairness of the electoral process. As California continues to navigate its political landscape, the rise in registered Republican voters serves as a reminder of the dynamic nature of democracy and the power of grassroots activism in shaping its course.
