Fresno, CA Metropolitan Statistical Area

Fresno County (), officially the County of Fresno, is a county located in the central portion of the U.S. state of California. As of the 2020 Census, the population was 1,008,654. The county seat is Fresno, the fifth-most populous city in California.

Fresno County comprises the Fresno, CA Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is part of the Fresno- Madera, CA Combined Statistical Area. It is located in the Central Valley, south of Stockton and north of Bakersfield. Since 2010, statewide droughts in California have further strained both Fresno County's and the entire Central Valley's water security.

History

The area now known as Fresno County was the traditional homeland of Yokuts and Mono tribe, Mono peoples, and was later settled by Spaniards during a search for suitable mission sites. In 1846, this area became part of the United States as a result of the Mexican War.

Fresno County was formed in 1856 from parts of Mariposa County, California, Mariposa, Merced County, California, Merced and Tulare County, California, Tulare counties. ''Fresno'' is Spanish language, Spanish for "ash tree" and it was in recognition of the abundance of the shrubby local Ash, ''Fraxinus dipetala'', growing along the San Joaquin River that it received its name. Parts of Fresno County's territory were given to Mono County, California, Mono County in 1861 and to Madera County, California, Madera County in 1893. The original county seat was along the San Joaquin River in Millerton, Madera County, California, Millerton, but was moved to the rapidly growing town of Fresno on the newly built Southern Pacific Railroad line after a flood destroyed much of the town.

The settling of Fresno County was not without its conflicts, land disputes, and other natural disasters. Floods caused immeasurable damage elsewhere and fires also plagued the settlers of Fresno County. In 1882, the greatest of the early day fires wiped out an entire block of the city of Fresno, and was followed by another devastating blaze in 1883.

At the same time residents brought irrigation, electricity, and extensive agriculture to the area. In 1865, William Helm brought his sheep to Fresno county, which was then a vast space of open land. Helm was the largest individual sheep grower in Fresno County. Moses Church developed the first canals, called "Church Ditches," for irrigation. These canals allowed extensive cultivation of wheat. Francis Eisen, leader of the wine industry in Fresno County, also began the raisin industry in 1875, when he accidentally let some of his grapes dry on the vine. Anthony Young Easterby and Clovis Marshal Cole developed extensive grain and cattle ranches. These and other citizens laid the groundwork for the cultivation of Fresno County – now one of the nation's leading agricultural regions. In more recent times cotton became a major crop in Fresno and the southern San Joaquin Valley, but recent drought and lower demand have lessened cotton's importance to the local economy.

The discovery of oil in the western part of the county, near the town of Coalinga, California, Coalinga at the foot of the Coast Ranges, brought about an economic boom in the 1900s (decade), even though the field itself was known at least as early as the 1860s. By 1910, Coalinga Oil Field, the largest field in Fresno County, was the most richly productive oil field in California; a dramatic oil gusher in 1909, the biggest in California up until that time, was an event of sufficient excitement to cause the Los Angeles Stock Exchange to close for a day so that its members could come by train to view it. The Coalinga field continues to produce oil, and is currently the eighth-largest field in the state.

More than thirty structures in Fresno County are on the National Register of Historic Places, including the Old Fresno Water Tower, Fresno Water Tower, which once held over of water for the city of Fresno, the Meux Home, and Kearney Park (Fresno), Kearney Mansion Museum.

In recent years, statewide droughts in California have further strained both Fresno's and the entire Central Valley's water security.

Politics

Overview

Fresno County's voter registration shows a majority of United States Democratic Party, Democratic voters.
Presidential elections have been competitive in recent decades. In United States presidential election in California, 2020, 2020, Joe Biden became the first Democratic presidential candidate since Lyndon Johnson in United States presidential election in California, 1964, 1964 to win a majority of the vote in Fresno County.

The cities of Clovis, California, Clovis, Coalinga, California, Coalinga, and Kingsburg, California, Kingsburg voted overwhelmingly for Governor Mitt Romney. Reedley, California, Reedley did so by much lesser margins and is now a GOP-leaning "swing" city in the county. Huron, California, Huron, Mendota, California, Mendota, Orange Cove, California, Orange Cove, Parlier, California, Parlier, Fowler, California, Fowler, Firebaugh, California, Firebaugh, Fresno, Kerman, California, Kerman, Sanger, California, Sanger, Selma, California, Selma and San Joaquin, California, San Joaquin voted overwhelmingly for President Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012.

According to the California Secretary of State, in October 2012 there were 410,188 registered voters in Fresno County. 158,267 (38.6%) were registered Republican, 164,663 (40.1%) were registered Democratic, 19,841 (4.8%) are registered with other political parties, and 67,417 (16.4%) declined to state a political party. Republicans have a plurality or majority of voter roll registration in the cities of Clovis, Coalinga, Kingsburg, Reedley, and the unincorporated areas.

From Fresno County's incorporation in 1856, it voted Democratic in every election until the 1904 election in California, when President Theodore Roosevelt stood for re-election. Fresno County backed Roosevelt over his Democratic opponent Alton B. Parker. This did not immediately change the county's voting tendencies, however. It supported southern Democrat Woodrow Wilson in the elections of 1912 and 1916.

Fresno County was generally Republican from the onset of the "roaring 1920s" until the Great Depression, when former President Franklin D. Roosevelt forged the New Deal Coalition that benefitted the agrarian county. From 1932 till 1976 the county consistently voted United States Democratic Party, Democratic, barring Richard Nixon's landslide victory over former Senator George McGovern (D-SD) in the 1972 Presidential Election.

With former President Jimmy Carter's defeat by former Ronald Reagan, President Reagan, Fresno became a GOP-leaning swing county: it barely favored Reagan's successor former President George H. W. Bush, Bush and voted Democratic for Bill Clinton only in his 1992 presidential bid. Republicans won elections in Fresno County by increasing margins from 1996 to 2004, but when the GOP lost ground with Hispanic voters after 2004, the county swung Democratic, voting twice for Barack Obama, and then for Hillary Clinton in 2016. Until the 2020 election, with Joe Biden winning nearly 53% of the vote, the last time the Democratic nominee won with an absolute majority of the vote was the 1964 election.

In the United States House of Representatives, Fresno County is split among four congressional districts:
*
*
*
*

In the California State Senate, the county is split among 3 legislative districts:
* ,
* , and
* .

In the California State Assembly, Fresno County is split between , and .

Fresno tends to remain socially conservative while being more moderate on economic issues, which can be seen in Fresno's support for socially conservative proposition amendments but occasionally voting for a Democratic Presidential Candidate if economic times are poor such as former President Bill Clinton's victory over incumbent former President George H.W. Bush in 1992 and President Barack Obama over John McCain, Senator John McCain in 2008.

As of 2022, elections for president lean Democratic. Statewide races have historically been competitive. Elections for governor are considered safe for Republicans. This is a somewhat unusual difference in voting patterns for a California county. For example, although Fresno County gave a majority of its votes to Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election and has voted for the Democrat running for president ever since 2008, it voted “Yes” in the 2021 California gubernatorial recall election and has voted for the Republican candidate for governor in every election since 1978.

On November 4, 2008, Fresno County voted 68.6% for California Proposition 8 (2008), Proposition 8, which amended the California Constitution to ban same-sex marriages.
