Voters in Shasta County, California, turned against their Republican leaders for not being conservative enough, especially over Covid orders from the state.
Redding, California Nestled inland among national forests, Shasta County could be seen as a GOP haven in California, far from the liberal coastal centers that dominate state politics. But it was here, where Republicans outnumber Democrats 2-to-1, that rebels stood up against their local party leaders and then recalled an elected official to install one of their own.
It was a ballot-box success for ultra-conservatives -- one that could be repeated in local elections this year as well as primaries and the midterms as Republicans decide whether to skew right with former President Donald Trump or hew to a more traditional course. "I think it's the Republican Party falling apart," said Leonard Moty, the loser in this month's Shasta County recall election for his supervisor seat, according to preliminary results.
