'Cause I have been told that people from CA was fleeing due to the immigrations problem and that the state was run by a Dem.

Like any oversimplification Markus it will not explain the breath of reasons people fleeing California, but they mostly have to do with
the policies that the ruling party has instituted rather than who is occupying the governors seat.
From what I read the major reasons that people are leaving California are the increasingly high costs of living, housing, and transportation coupled with an increase in crime, pollution, and congestion. Illegal immigration would be connected to some of that but is not the only cause.
Businesses are also fleeing the state as well, citing things like crime, high rents, high taxes, high costs of living for employees, and increasingly onerous business regulations and red tape.
