Why do so many people seem to have the mistaken impression that Californians and New Yorkers all vote for Democrats? Trump got something like 7.3 million votes between those two states, and various other candidates also got votes other than Trump and Clinton. Clinton got around 13.3 million in those 2 states. That's a 6 million vote difference in an election which had almost 130,000,000 votes cast.
No one said all Californians and New Yorkers vote Democrat. However, both states have far more Democrats than they do Republicans, and even their Republicans tend to be more left-leaning than in most states.
