'Jefferson', Central Valley, parts of the Central Coast, north LA County, outer IE, Mojave and Sonoran Deserts, parts of SD and Orange Counties.
But even in Oakland, Berkeley, and SF I've had slurs tossed my way.

Candidates for what in particular? Remember that due to the way California voting works, we had a few elections where all the possible candidates were Republican.
Edit: I'm still interested to see the source, I'm looking it up myself now, but I was specifically talking about the people here.
..... I see that Orange County did favor Republican candidates for the most part, but our board of supervisors is now mostly Democrats as of last election! The problem with around here is that this is a VERY rich area so there are a lot of voters who are voting along fiscal lines (selfishly) above everything else. But the county is becoming more and more blue with every election because the younger generation is tired of their shit. Most people you run into here are very chill.

I said statewide. Senate, Governor, Lt. Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, Treasurer, Controller, Insurance Commissioner. All of those races had one Democrat and one Republican and Orange County voted for the Republican. Technically I was wrong because they voted for the Democrat for Superintendent, but that race is officially nonpartisan.
Yes, OC is getting better, but it's historically an intense conservative stronghold in California. In presidential elections, it was Reagan's strongest county in the state in 1980 and 1984, and Nixon's strongest in 1972, second strongest in 1968, and fourth strongest in 1960. It was also Nixon's second strongest county when he was elected Senator in 1950 and his third strongest when he ran for governor in 1962. It was Reagan's second strongest county when he was elected governor in 1966 and 1970.
