“If you can come in California and carve out a couple media markets where you can spend a lot of money or you can put together a lot of volunteers and get a [small number of] Republican votes in overwhelmingly Democratic congressional districts, you have a great shot to pick up delegates,” said former GOP chairman Jim Brulte. “And if you get 15 or 20 or 30 delegates from California, that’s more delegates than some other states have.”
