The 2008 United States presidential election in California took place on November 4, 2008, in California as part of the 2008 United States presidential election. Voters chose 55 electors, the most out of any of the 50 states, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.

California was won by Democratic nominee Barack Obama with a 24.1% margin of victory. No Republican has carried the state in a presidential election since George H. W. Bush in 1988. Prior to the election, California was considered to be a state Obama would win or as a safe blue state. With its 55 electoral votes, California was Obama's largest electoral prize in 2008.

As of the 2020 presidential election, this is the last time the Democratic candidate carried Trinity County in a presidential election. This was also the first time since 1936 that a Democrat won more than 60% of the vote in California, which the Democrats have done in every election since.

Primaries
 For other parties, see California state elections, February 2008.

On February 5, 2008, presidential primaries were held by all parties with ballot access in the state.

Democratic

The 2008 California Democratic presidential primary took place on February 5, 2008, also known as Super Tuesday. California was dubbed the "Big Enchilada" by the media because it offers the most delegates out of any other delegation. Hillary Clinton won the primary.

Process
In the primary, 370 of California's 441 delegates to the Democratic National Convention were selected. The remaining delegates were superdelegates not obligated to vote for any candidate at the convention. Of these delegates, 241 were awarded at the congressional district level, and the remaining 129 were awarded to the statewide winner. Candidates were required to receive at least 15% of either the district or statewide vote to receive any delegates. Registered Democrats and Decline to State voters were eligible to vote.

Polls

The latest six polls were averaged (only counting the latest Zogby poll).

Results

Republican

The 2008 California Republican primary was held on February 5, 2008, with a total of 173 national delegates at stake.

Process
The delegates represented California at the Republican National Convention. There were three delegates to every congressional district and fourteen bonus delegates. The winner in each of the 53 congressional districts was awarded all of that district's delegates. The statewide winner was awarded 11 of the 14 bonus delegates, with the 3 remaining delegates assigned to party leaders. Voting in the primary was restricted to registered Republican voters.

Polls

Early polls showed Rudy Giuliani in the lead. Polls taken closer to the primary either showed Mitt Romney or John McCain as the favored candidate.

Predictions

Polling

Characterized early on as “The Big Enchilada” by some pundits, ultimately Obama won most opinion polls taken prior to the election. Until October 9, his lead ranged from 7 to 15 points in most polls. However, after October 9, his lead expanded to more than 20 consistently. In the final three polls he averaged 59%, while McCain averaged 34%; which is close to the results on election day.

Fundraising
Obama raised a total of $124,325,459 from the state. McCain raised a total of $26,802,024.

Advertising and visits
The Obama campaign spent almost $5,570,641. The McCain campaign spent $1,885,142. Obama visited the state six times. McCain visited the state eight times.

Analysis
California was once a Republican leaning swing state, supporting Republican candidates in every election from 1952 through 1988, except in 1964. However, since the 1990s, California has become a reliably Democratic state with a highly diverse ethnic population (mostly Latino) and liberal bastions such as the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles County. The last time the state was won by a Republican candidate was in 1988 by George H. W. Bush.

Obama won by a historic margin, with 61.01% of the votes. Most news organizations called California for Obama as soon as the polls in the state closed. He was projected the winner of the state along with Washington, Hawaii, and Oregon at the same time, whose combined electoral votes caused all news organizations to declare Obama the president-elect. The last time the margin was higher in the state was in 1936 when Franklin D. Roosevelt won with 66.95% of the vote.

In San Francisco and Alameda County (which includes Oakland and Berkeley), four out of five voters backed the Democratic candidate. Elsewhere in the Bay Area, Obama won every county by a three to two margin or greater. In Los Angeles County, Obama won almost 70% of the votes. His combined margin in the Bay Area and Los Angeles County would have been more than enough to carry the state.

Obama also made considerable headway in historically Republican areas of the state. Fresno County, for example, a heavily populated county in the Central Valley, went from giving Bush a 16% margin to a 2% margin for Obama. San Diego County moved from a six-percent margin for Bush to a 10-point margin for Obama—only the second time since World War II that a Democrat has carried this military-dominated county. San Bernardino and Riverside went from double-digit Republican victories to narrow Democratic wins. Ventura County also moved from Republican to Democratic. Orange County, historically one of the most Republican suburban counties in the nation, went from a 21-point margin for Bush to only a 2.5-point margin for McCain.

Voter turnout was also fairly higher than the national average. The 79% turnout of registered voters in the state was the highest since the 1976 presidential election. Despite the Democratic landslide in California, during the same election, a ballot proposition to ban same-sex marriage narrowly passed. A number of counties that had voted for Obama voted yes to it, as it was supported by Hispanics and African Americans. Even though Obama considered marriage to be between a man and a woman at the time, he opposed the "divisive and discriminatory efforts to amend the California Constitution... the U.S. Constitution or those of other states". Arnold Schwarzenegger, the state's Republican governor and a supporter of John McCain, opposed the proposition, though McCain supported it. There was also a proposed ballot proposition called the Presidential Election Reform Act in the state to alter the way the state's electors would be distributed among presidential candidates, but the initiative failed to get onto the ballot.

Results
The following are official results from the California Secretary of State.

By county
The results below are primarily compiled from the final reports available from the Secretary of State. The "others" category also includes write-in votes.

Counties that flipped from Republican to Democratic
 Butte (largest city: Chico)
 Fresno (largest town: Fresno)
 Nevada (largest town: Truckee)
 Merced (largest community: Merced)
 Riverside (largest city: Riverside)
 San Bernardino (largest town: San Bernardino)
 San Diego (largest community: San Diego)
 San Joaquin (largest city: Stockton)
 San Luis Obispo (largest town: San Luis Obispo)
 Stanislaus (largest community: Modesto)
 Trinity (largest community: Weaverville)
 Ventura (largest city: Ventura)

By congressional district
Obama carried 42 of 53 congressional districts in California, including eight districts held by Republicans.

Electors
Technically the voters of California cast their ballots for electors: representatives to the Electoral College. California is allocated 55 electors because it has 53 congressional districts and 2 senators. All candidates who appear on the ballot or qualify to receive write-in votes must submit a list of 55 electors, who pledge to vote for their candidate and his or her running mate, to the California Secretary of State. Whoever wins the majority of votes in the state is awarded all 55 electoral votes. Their chosen electors then vote for president and vice president. Although electors are pledged to their candidate and running mate, they are not obligated to vote for them. An elector who votes for someone other than his or her candidate is known as a faithless elector.

The electors of each state and the District of Columbia met on December 15, 2008, to cast their votes for president and vice president. The Electoral College itself never meets as one body. Instead the electors from each state and the District of Columbia met in their respective capitols. In California the 55 electors meet in the State Capitol building in Sacramento to cast their ballots.

The following were the members of the Electoral College from California. All were pledged to and voted for Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

Maxine Joyce "Micki" King (born July 26, 1944) is an American former competitive diver and diving coach.  She was a gold medal winner at the 1972 Summer Olympics in the three meter springboard event.

She was the dominant figure in women's diving in the United States from 1965 to 1972, winning 10 national championships, including both springboard and platform events.  At the 1968 Summer Olympics, she was in first place in the three meter springboard event when she broke her left arm on the ninth dive; she completed the tenth dive, but finished in fourth place.  In 1972, she made a comeback at the Munich Olympics, winning the gold medal in the three meter springboard event.

King was a career officer in the United States Air Force from 1966 to 1992, retiring with the rank of colonel.  She taught physical education and coached diving at the United States Air Force Academy, becoming the first woman to serve on the faculty of a U.S military academy and the first woman to coach a male athlete to an NCAA championship.  She was named NCAA Division II Coach of the Year three times.  From 1992 to 2006, King was assistant athletic director at the University of Kentucky.  She was also the president of US Diving from 1990 to 1994.  She has been inducted into the United States Olympic Hall of Fame, the International Women's Sports Hall of Fame, the International Swimming Hall of Fame, and the University of Michigan Athletic Hall of Honor.

Early years
King was born in Pontiac, Michigan, the daughter of a General Motors tool engineer in Pontiac.  She developed a love of water sports at her family's cottage in Waterford, Michigan.  She began diving at age ten through lessons at the YMCA in downtown Pontiac.  She attended Pontiac Central High School. Throughout high school she entered and won AAU meets regularly.

University of Michigan and Ann Arbor Swim Club
King attended the University of Michigan from 1961 to 1965.  When King arrived at Michigan in 1961, it did not have a women's diving program.  When men's diving coach Dick Kimball saw King, he saw a potential diving star; he saw strength, desire, a natural spring and great athleticism.  Kimball decided to train King with the men's team.  Working with Kimball, King became the first woman to master a number of dives, including a 1-1/2 somersault dive with a 2-1/2 twist on a ten-meter tower.

In the years before Title IX, women were not permitted to compete in Michigan athletics, but Kimball and King circumvented the system.  King recalled, "One of Coach Kimball's greatest lines was that he didn't coach men or women he coached people.  He taught me dives that no woman had ever done before.  I pioneered those dives.  Coach Kimball knew that we were a team of people."  She noted: "We used the women's pool at the CCRB.  What was ironic was that the men were allowed to come into and use the women's pool but the women couldn't even come into the men's.  What Kimball would do was sneak us through the back doors because the front door was right in front of the administrators. We used the spectator bathroom and used washcloths and the public sink as a shower. We thought we were lucky."

She was the dominant figure in women's diving in the United States from 1965 to 1972.  In 1965, competing for the Ann Arbor Swim Club (since Michigan did not have a team), King was the US national indoor platform champion, the national outdoor three-meter champion and was named Diver of the Year.  After graduating from Michigan, King joined the US Air Force in 1966 and was assigned to the Air Force ROTC program in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where she continued to train with Dick Kimball. In all, King won ten US national diving championships in the outdoor three-meter springboard (1965, 1967, 1969, 1970), one meter (1967), platform (1969), and indoor three-meter springboard (1965, 1971).

King also excelled in water polo.  She led the Ann Arbor Swim Club to two AAU national championships  (1961–1963) and was twice named an All-American goalie.

1968 and 1972 Olympic Games
Going into the 1968 Summer Olympics, King was the favorite in the three-meter competition.  She was popular with American diving fans not only for her diving ability but also for her personality and good looks.  A 1967 Associated Press article described her as "shapely" and "a vivacious, blue-eyed blond, who does justice to a bathing suit".  She is remembered for her courageous performance in the 1968 Summer Olympics in which she was in first place when she broke her left forearm on her ninth dive. She later recalled: "I was leading with only three dives to go, but on my second-to-last dive, I hit the board with my arm. The irony was that I could have done my cleanup dive with a broken leg, but I didn't know I had to do it with a broken arm. I didn't think it was going to hurt, and when it did, it shook me up."  The pain caused King to lose form on her last dive, and she slipped from first to fourth.

She made an Olympic comeback and won the gold medal in the 1972 Summer Olympics in the three-meter springboard event. King noted that, while she was caught up in the pageantry and adventure of the Olympics in 1968, she was 28 years old at the Munich games; she viewed it as her "last hurrah," and "it was all business."  Going into the final round in Munich, King was in third place.  She won the gold on her final dive, the same half-somersault with a one-and-a-half twist that cost her gold in Mexico City.  When Palestinian gunmen took Israeli athletes hostage, King and her coaches used zoom lenses to observe the gunmen on a balcony outside an apartment of Israeli athletes.  "The Olympics are such a wonderful tradition for sport, but it has never been the same since 1972, given the tragedy there," King said. "The beauty of sportsmanship is spoiled by the need for security."

US Air Force
King also had a 26-year career in the US Air Force from 1966 to 1992.  While preparing for the 1972 Olympics, King trained at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado.  In 1973, she was assigned to instruct physical education and coach diving at the Air Force Academy, becoming the first woman to hold a faculty position at a US military academy, and the only female coach in any sport to coach a male athlete to an NCAA championship. She coached Air Force divers to 11 All-America honors and four national titles, and was twice named NCAA Division II Coach of the Year.  In 1992, King retired from the Air Force as a full colonel.

In 1976, King married Air Force pilot, Jim Hogue, and she changed her name during the marriage to Micki King Hogue.  In 1982, King had a daughter, Michelle Hogue. In 1984, she had a son, Kevin Hogue.

While serving in the Air Force, King was a member of the committee that led the way for women to be admitted to the US military academies.  King's daughter, Michelle Hogue, graduated from the Air Force Academy in 2004.  At the time, King noted, "Never once in the two years of committee work did I ever dream that my own daughter would be a beneficiary."  On her graduation, King's daughter presented King with a class ring from the Academy.  King noted, "She said if anybody should have a class ring, I should."

Television
In addition to being a color commentator with Bill Flemming for ABC's television coverage at the 1976 Summer Olympics,  King was also a competitor in the 1970s television series, Superstars and Battle of the Sexes.  She appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson on October 25, 1972. Appeared on the television show "To Tell the Truth", 1973–74 season five.

University of Kentucky
In 1992, King became an assistant athletic director and senior women's administrator at the University of Kentucky where she remained for 14 years.  She was also the first woman to command Kentucky's ROTC detachment.  King was relieved of her duties as part of a major shake-up in the Kentucky athletics department in May 2006.

Continued involvement in Olympic diving
She has remained active in Olympic diving over the years.  King was a color commentator on ABC television's coverage of the 1976 Summer Olympics.  She had been scheduled to do the color commentary at the 1980 Moscow games that were boycotted by the United States.  At the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, King was the team leader for the US diving team.  From 1990 to 1994, King was the president of US Diving, the governing body for US divers, and attended the 1992 Summer Olympics in that capacity.  At the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, King was again the Olympic team leader for US divers; she sequestered the team for intensive training at the University of Kentucky facilities before the games.  At the time, she noted, "We'll train in Lexington because it's in the same time zone, it has great facilities and I wanted another week at home."  In 2001, she was part of an independent review commission that concluded that US Track & Field did not intentionally cover up positive drug tests but did not follow procedures in reporting violators.  In April 2005, King was elected to serve a four-year term as vice president of the US Olympians Association.

Women's Sports Foundation
In 1974, King was one of the founders of the Women's Sports Foundation along with Billie Jean King, Donna de Varona, and Wyomia Tyus.  She was a member of the Foundation's Board of Trustees from 1988 to 1990 and has served on its Board of Stewards since 1990.  Long a proponent of funding for women's sports, King noted in 1999, "The test of Title IX is to go into high schools and ask the girls about the history of their teams.  When today's 17-year-old assumes there has always been a volleyball team at their school, then it has become accepted as part of their culture."

Awards and honors
She has received numerous awards and honors, including:
 In 1978, she was inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame.
 She was inducted into the International Women's Sports Hall of Fame in 1983.  She was the first diver inducted, and only 20 athletes were inducted before King.
 In 1986, King was inducted into the University of Michigan Athletic Hall of Honor.  She was the first woman inducted.
 In 1988, King received the Glenn McCormick Annual Award presented by US Diving for outstanding contributions to the sport of diving.
 In 1992, she was inducted into the United States Olympic Hall of Fame.
 In 1993, she was inducted into the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame.
 In 1994, the University of Michigan "M" Club awarded King an Honorary "M".  When King attended Michigan, women's diving was not a varsity sport, and she therefore did not receive a varsity letter during her years as a student.
 In 2001, King received the Phil Boggs Award for individual excellence in diving and for giving back to the sport.

Robert Bowyer (; bap. 18 June 1758 – 4 June 1834) was a British miniature painter and publisher.

Bowyer was born in Portsmouth to Amos and Betty Ann Bowyer and baptized on 18 June 1758. His first job was as a clerk to a merchant in Portsmouth and then London. Two different accounts of his career shift survive. The first claims that he had decided to voyage to America, and before leaving wanted to obtain a portrait of himself for his fiancée, Mary Shoveller. Unable to afford to commission one, he painted one himself and eventually gave up the idea of going to America and became a miniaturist. The second claims that he was simply looking for a job and decided to paint. On 14 July 1777, Bowyer married Shoveller; the couple had one daughter.

Bowyer probably began to train with the miniature painter John Smart in the late 1770s and exhibited his first works at the Society of Artists in 1782 and at the Royal Academy in 1783. Bowyer had a successful career, painting the Duke of Rutland, the Marchioness of Salisbury, and Lord Nelson. On 4 March 1789 Bowyer was appointed Miniature Painter in Ordinary to the King, following the death of Jeremiah Meyer.

In the 1790s, Bowyer became a print publisher, starting with his own works. His two major endeavors were an illustrated edition of the Bible and David Hume's The History of England. Bowyer's Bible, begun in 1791 and finished in 1795, included 32 engravings by James Fittler after Old Master paintings. Bowyer also bought prints in France that he incorporated into a later edition known as "Bowyer's Bible"; he had an agent purchase even more during the Napoleonic wars. These were added to Thomas Macklin's illustrated edition of the Bible, extending it to 45 volumes.

Bowyer displayed the paintings he commissioned for Hume's work in a "Historic Gallery", sited in the Schomberg House building at 82 Pall Mall. The idea of placing the original pictures for the illustrated edition on display followed the examples of the Boydell Shakespeare Gallery, Thomas Macklin's Gallery of the Poets, and Henry Fuseli's Milton Gallery, all of which operated in Pall Mall at around the same time. Benjamin West and others contributed a total of 60 works to the Historic Gallery. By 1806, Bowyer had printed five folios, covering the years up to 1688, but high costs then prevented him from completing the work. Bowyer lost as much as £30,000 on the project and in 1805, to recoup some of these costs, he followed John Boydell's route in applying to Parliament for permission to hold a lottery for the gallery contents. Even after receiving approval for the lottery, it took Bowyer a further year to ensure that two paintings by Robert Smirke and 18 engravings were completed and the sale could proceed.

Due to his relationship with Smart, Bowyer also published a series of engravings regarding India. In 1794, for example, he published Picturesque Views, with a Descriptive History of the Country of Tipoo Sultan after drawings by Robert Home and in 1797 Oriental Scenery: Twenty-Four Views in Hindoostan after drawings by Thomas Daniell.

In 1796, the Bowyers' only daughter died at 18 and Robert wrote to Warren Hastings that he feared his wife might die as well. Three years later, however, the couple adopted Catherine Andras an orphaned wax modeller from Bristol.

During the Peace of Amiens, the Bowyers and Andras went to Paris as members of the Baptist Missionary Society and helped form the French Evangelical Society. Bowyer became increasingly active in religious causes later in his life, establishing a Sunday School, for example. He even bought a public house, demolished it, and built a chapel in its place near his place of business. In addition to religious activities, Bowyer turned back to miniature portrait painting at the end of his life. George IV and others sat for him.

Bowyer's last years were plagued by financial difficulties and his home suffered a significant fire. He died on 4 June 1834. Mary Parkes, a maid and shop assistant, inherited the business.

In 1149 under the reign of Lý Anh Tông (1138-1175), the Vân Đồn island authority was officially formed as a strategic location, at the same time as a busy trading port of Đại Việt. The port was bustling under the dynasties of Lý (1009-1225), Trần (1225-1400), and later Lê (1442-1789) hosting trading ships from other countries.

Vân Đồn is also home to various historical sites representing important events in the Vietnamese national fight against foreign invaders.
