Patterson, who worked for Meg Whitman’s 2010 gubernatorial campaign, is the choice of several moderates who think she’s more likely to steer the party in a helpful direction. Patterson said this last election should serve as a wake-up call for Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the Democrats did a very good job on staying on message,” said Patterson. “Every single time we try to talk about the things that are local, and the things that matter most to Californians, it always gets brought on to this nationalized message.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Patterson is supportive of Trump’s ideas for immigration reform. The president also has the broad support of Allen and Frank. That position will likely to help the candidates at a convention full of party faithful. The new chair will have to see if it’s as appealing to California voters in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Also that year, Republicans backed \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_187,_Illegal_Aliens_Ineligible_for_Public_Benefits_(1994)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Proposition 187,\u003c/a> which was widely regarded as anti-immigrant. The measure passed, but the party has been sliding ever since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, a devastating November election cut the GOP's congressional delegation in half, delivered 75 percent of the state Legislature to Democrats and extended the party's shutout in statewide elections to 12 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'I think the pulse of the GOP in California is very faint.'\u003ccite> Catharine Baker, former Bay Area assemblywoman\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Now, some Republicans — though certainly not all — feel it's time for a little soul-searching.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the pulse of the GOP in California is very faint,\" said former Bay Area Assemblywoman Catharine Baker, a moderate who supports same-sex marriage, policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions that cause climate change and other \"progressive\" policies. \"There's really no other message that Republicans can get from the November elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite her moderate positions, Baker lost her re-election bid in November to a Democrat — handing over the last remaining GOP seat in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a recent Commonwealth Club forum, Baker said voters told her \"day in and day out\" that \"I like your positions, but I cannot vote for you because you have an 'R' after your name,\" adding that \"to me it meant anything associated with the Republican Party was toxic in my district.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some of the party faithful disagree, believing the state GOP needs to take a harder right turn — starting with the party's next leader.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the leading candidates to replace outgoing Chairman Jim Brulte is former Assemblyman Travis Allen of Huntington Beach, the fourth-place finisher in last year's June gubernatorial primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11727598\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11727598\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former Assemblyman Travis Allen is hoping to become the next California Republican Party chair. \u003ccite>(Scott Shafer/KQED )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Allen is a favorite of the Republican Party's most conservative members, and he makes it clear he would not represent the kind of move to the middle many think the party needs to become more competitive in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The concept that the Republican Party needs to somehow forgo its values to be more palatable in California is entirely incorrect,\" Allen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He blames the party's selection of relatively moderate gubernatorial candidates like Meg Whitman, Neel Kashkari and John Cox, calling that strategy \"losing backwards\" and arguing that the GOP should return to conservative Republicans like George Deukmejian, who was elected governor in 1982 and '86.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course that analysis ignores how much California has changed since then. In the past two decades, the Republican Party's share of the electorate in California has gone from 36 percent in 1998 to 24 percent today, third behind Democrats with 44 percent and \"no party preference\" or independent voters at 28 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allen is popular among the party faithful who attend GOP conventions, but other prominent Republicans have been making the case that the party needs to seriously reconsider its priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe the party in California is virtually dead,\" Kristin Olsen said at the Commonwealth Club panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olsen, who led the Assembly Republicans when she represented the Modesto area in the state Legislature — and now serves on the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors — believes that the party is \"not salvageable\" in its present state.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/IMG_1221-1180x885.jpg\">Democrats Complete California Sweep, and Republican Strategist Matt Shupe on the Cox Campaign and Future of the GOP\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/IMG_1221-1180x885.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/IMG_1221-1180x885.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Olsen advocates for a third party to represent disaffected Republicans and others who feel the Democratic Party has drifted too far to the left. And when asked if she ever thinks about leaving the GOP, she said, \"To be honest, I think about it weekly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She does not, however, consider registering as a Democrat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know I still believe in what at least were the fundamental principles of the conservative movement: limited government, balanced budgets, freedom and liberty, education excellence and economic opportunity,\" Olsen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not everyone has given up on the GOP. Political consultant Matt Shupe, who was communications director for John Cox's unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign last year, describes himself as \"an eternal optimist\" and attributes the party's recent losses to \"tactical and technical\" problems, as opposed to being fundamentally out-of-sync with California voters on issues like immigration, LGBT rights and abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he added, \"We have just been the party of 'no' and we have fallen flat in coming up with alternative good, viable alternatives\" to Democratic Party policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shupe dismisses those who say the sky is falling for the California Republican Party. \"I don't think there was a major pendulum swing,\" Shupe said of the November election.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">'We have just been the party of 'no' and we have fallen flat in coming up with alternative good, viable alternatives'\u003ccite>Matt Shupe, political consultant and former communications director for John Cox\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>He noted that in 2008, after Barack Obama was elected president, critics said the GOP was dead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A few years later Republicans took the House, and eight years later they had the House, the Senate and the presidency. This stuff comes in ebbs and flows,\" Shupe said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Electoral reforms like California's top-two primary system have created the risk that GOP candidates are simply left off the ballot for statewide races, as they were in the U.S. Senate races in 2016 and 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, out of fear their voters would stay home, Republicans put a repeal of the gas tax increase on the November ballot, hoping that would help bring conservatives to the polls. The campaign for Proposition 6 was fueled with money from Cox, then-Republican House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not only did voters reject Proposition 6, there's no evidence it helped mobilize conservatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps no election indicated how far Republicans have fallen than a relatively obscure race for the Board of Equalization in the San Diego area. The Republican candidate, state Sen.

Also that year, Republicans backed \u003ca href=\"https://ballotpedia.org/California_Proposition_187,_Illegal_Aliens_Ineligible_for_Public_Benefits_(1994)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Proposition 187,\u003c/a> which was widely regarded as anti-immigrant. The measure passed, but the party has been sliding ever since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, a devastating November election cut the GOP's congressional delegation in half, delivered 75 percent of the state Legislature to Democrats and extended the party's shutout in statewide elections to 12 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'I think the pulse of the GOP in California is very faint.'\u003ccite> Catharine Baker, former Bay Area assemblywoman\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Now, some Republicans — though certainly not all — feel it's time for a little soul-searching.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the pulse of the GOP in California is very faint,\" said former Bay Area Assemblywoman Catharine Baker, a moderate who supports same-sex marriage, policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions that cause climate change and other \"progressive\" policies. \"There's really no other message that Republicans can get from the November elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite her moderate positions, Baker lost her re-election bid in November to a Democrat — handing over the last remaining GOP seat in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a recent Commonwealth Club forum, Baker said voters told her \"day in and day out\" that \"I like your positions, but I cannot vote for you because you have an 'R' after your name,\" adding that \"to me it meant anything associated with the Republican Party was toxic in my district.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some of the party faithful disagree, believing the state GOP needs to take a harder right turn — starting with the party's next leader.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the leading candidates to replace outgoing Chairman Jim Brulte is former Assemblyman Travis Allen of Huntington Beach, the fourth-place finisher in last year's June gubernatorial primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11727598\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11727598\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/allen-e1550685496530-2-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former Assemblyman Travis Allen is hoping to become the next California Republican Party chair. \u003ccite>(Scott Shafer/KQED )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Allen is a favorite of the Republican Party's most conservative members, and he makes it clear he would not represent the kind of move to the middle many think the party needs to become more competitive in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The concept that the Republican Party needs to somehow forgo its values to be more palatable in California is entirely incorrect,\" Allen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He blames the party's selection of relatively moderate gubernatorial candidates like Meg Whitman, Neel Kashkari and John Cox, calling that strategy \"losing backwards\" and arguing that the GOP should return to conservative Republicans like George Deukmejian, who was elected governor in 1982 and '86.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course that analysis ignores how much California has changed since then. In the past two decades, the Republican Party's share of the electorate in California has gone from 36 percent in 1998 to 24 percent today, third behind Democrats with 44 percent and \"no party preference\" or independent voters at 28 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allen is popular among the party faithful who attend GOP conventions, but other prominent Republicans have been making the case that the party needs to seriously reconsider its priorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe the party in California is virtually dead,\" Kristin Olsen said at the Commonwealth Club panel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olsen, who led the Assembly Republicans when she represented the Modesto area in the state Legislature — and now serves on the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors — believes that the party is \"not salvageable\" in its present state.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/IMG_1221-1180x885.jpg\">Democrats Complete California Sweep, and Republican Strategist Matt Shupe on the Cox Campaign and Future of the GOP\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/IMG_1221-1180x885.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/IMG_1221-1180x885.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Olsen advocates for a third party to represent disaffected Republicans and others who feel the Democratic Party has drifted too far to the left. And when asked if she ever thinks about leaving the GOP, she said, \"To be honest, I think about it weekly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She does not, however, consider registering as a Democrat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know I still believe in what at least were the fundamental principles of the conservative movement: limited government, balanced budgets, freedom and liberty, education excellence and economic opportunity,\" Olsen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not everyone has given up on the GOP. Political consultant Matt Shupe, who was communications director for John Cox's unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign last year, describes himself as \"an eternal optimist\" and attributes the party's recent losses to \"tactical and technical\" problems, as opposed to being fundamentally out-of-sync with California voters on issues like immigration, LGBT rights and abortion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, he added, \"We have just been the party of 'no' and we have fallen flat in coming up with alternative good, viable alternatives\" to Democratic Party policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shupe dismisses those who say the sky is falling for the California Republican Party. \"I don't think there was a major pendulum swing,\" Shupe said of the November election.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">'We have just been the party of 'no' and we have fallen flat in coming up with alternative good, viable alternatives'\u003ccite>Matt Shupe, political consultant and former communications director for John Cox\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>He noted that in 2008, after Barack Obama was elected president, critics said the GOP was dead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A few years later Republicans took the House, and eight years later they had the House, the Senate and the presidency. This stuff comes in ebbs and flows,\" Shupe said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Electoral reforms like California's top-two primary system have created the risk that GOP candidates are simply left off the ballot for statewide races, as they were in the U.S. Senate races in 2016 and 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, out of fear their voters would stay home, Republicans put a repeal of the gas tax increase on the November ballot, hoping that would help bring conservatives to the polls. The campaign for Proposition 6 was fueled with money from Cox, then-Republican House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not only did voters reject Proposition 6, there's no evidence it helped mobilize conservatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps no election indicated how far Republicans have fallen than a relatively obscure race for the Board of Equalization in the San Diego area. The Republican candidate, state Sen. Joel Anderson, ran against a little-known Democrat, 80-year-old Michael Schaefer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11727600\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11727600\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Jessica_Pattterson.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Jessica_Pattterson.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Jessica_Pattterson-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Jessica_Pattterson-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Jessica_Pattterson-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Jessica_Pattterson-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jessica Patterson, a political consultant and head of California Trailblazers, hopes to be the next party chair of the California Republican Party. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of California Trailblazers)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Although Anderson, a longtime state lawmaker, was far better known, he narrowly lost to Schaefer, who in the past had been convicted of misdemeanors, spent time in jail, was placed under a restraining order and lost his right to practice law in Nevada and California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No matter — he had a \"D\" next to his name while Anderson had an \"R.\" With that defeat, former Assemblywoman Baker said, \"We might have hit rock bottom.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans like Matt Shupe are hoping Travis Allen does not become the next party chair and instead favor political consultant \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/GOPJessica/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jessica Patterson\u003c/a>, head of \u003ca href=\"https://catrailblazers.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California Trailblazers\u003c/a>.
