Here's an interesting article that appeared in this week's Palisadian Post on how Pacific Palisades voted in the 2020 general election. 

.

In the Palisades precincts, 87% of registered voters turned out to vote. This bested L.A. County's turnout of 74.6% — high, but lower than turnout in the 2008 Obama–McCain contest. 

As usual the Pacific Palisades vote was heavily Democratic: 72.4% voted for Biden, making the Palisades bluer in 2020 than in other years.

.

The votes on Measure J, to put aside 10% of unrestricted revenue to serve social justice issues, and RR, authorizing a bond issue for school infrastructure improvement, indicate that voters are progressive in their social values.    

.

All candidates endorsed by PPDC were elected with large majorities, with one outlier: the DA race. Your Dem club endorsed reform candidate Gascón, who won by 10 points, while other endorsed candidates victories garnered between 70% and 80% of the vote.
