The most populous state in the Union as well as one of the most Democratic, California has voted Democratic in every presidential election starting in 1992. It has done so by double digits in each of them excluding 2004, when John Kerry won it by 9.95%. It is thus expected that California will be a safe blue state, with Vice President Kamala Harris, for whom California is her home state and represented the state in the U.S. Senate for 4 years from 2017 to 2021 before assuming the vice presidency, being the presumptive Democratic nominee for president.
In April 2024, the American Independent Party of California nominated independent candidate, environmental lawyer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. of California as its presidential nominee, despite not seeking the party's nomination.[3]
