I was way wrong when I predicted that California wouldn't matter for the Rs since it's proportional based on Congressional districts. I figured McCain and Romney would split them fairly evenly.
McCain face crushed Romney. 164 - 6. He won all but two of the 53 districts. Cali might as well have been winner take all.
“And California, a state that awards its 170 delegates the same way as Oklahoma, appears to have given McCain his biggest victory of the night. According to the California secretary of state's office, McCain has won or is leading all but two of the state's 53 districts, which would give him 153 of the 159 delegates allocated from congressional districts in addition to the 11 awarded to the statewide winner. At the same time, McCain has won just 42 percent of the total vote in the Golden State.”
