There are no conservative congressional districts in the County of Los Angeles. There are 2 Republican Congressmen who represent districts that contain parts of LAC, (one in the north part of the county, the other in the southern part), but both districts are rated politically neutral. This does make them the most conservative districts in LAC, but not conservative per se. Orange County does continue to have mostly Republican Reps and several districts rated conservative, but this is much less true than it used to be. One big reason for this is the percentage of Hispanics in many Orange County congressional districts has increased dramatically over the last 15 years, and Asian immigrant communities, which used to be pretty conservative, have moved in the blue direction.
Of course the entire state of California is becoming hostile territory for Republicans - of 53 Congressional Districts, only 14 are Republican, and this number will almost certainly go down this November, in light of the Republican party’s immigration and tax policies. California is a state in which the GOP has intentionally committed suicide, starting in the early 1990s. This is almost entirely due to Immigrationi policy, and can be traced back to Pete Wilson’s, former SD Mayor and Ca Governor at the time, aggressively pushing horrific anti-immigration proposals in his effort to convince national Republicans he was not a moderate - part of his presidential ambitions. All of which is to say, Dash has zero chance of getting elected to Congress in LA County, and near zero even in the OC, where I expect only well established conservative incumbents to survive.
