Yep, I live in California. Local ballots are more important for my state than anything federal level, and I still voted for Harris.
I live in the worst part of California where its rural so Republicans win 60% of the vote, and state-wide Democrats win 60% of the vote. Props and city level are the only places I have a meaningful change, especially since my "city" has 5000 people.
So if I vote aginast the Republicans running for the House, my one vote didn't change much there as the redneck hillbillies who think California is communist are a voting bloc that can't be swayed, and they never need ot worry about re-election. I still vote for the Democrat, but last elections had two Republicans for the seat, one was backed by Trump, one was backed by Trump's aids and cabinet officials.
