The California Republican Party is undergoing a transformation influenced by Donald Trump's populism, as seen at their recent convention featuring pro-Trump festivities. Formerly dominated by traditional Reagan-era conservatives, the party sees a resurgence in representation, despite Trump losing the state. Notably, Republicans saw increased support from Latino voters. As emphasized in speeches during the convention, engaging with constituents frequently is key to their political strategy, aiming to galvanize a broader base for future elections.
"Just like Reagan was transformational figure in the political world, Donald Trump is a transformational figure," said former state GOP chairman Jim Brulte.
"Here's the secret sauce. You ready for it? You have to show up. Step one, show up. Show up early. Show up often." Rep. Tony Gonzalez.
