However, the county's changing demographics have resulted in a shift in political alignments. In 2016, Hillary Clinton became the first Democrat since 1936 to carry Orange County in a presidential election and in the 2018 midterm elections the Democratic Party gained control of every Congressional seat in the county. Although Democrats control all congressional districts in Orange County, Republicans maintained a lead in voter registration numbers, although it shrunk to less than a percentage point as of February 10, 2019, as compared with over 10% on February 10, 2013. The number of registered Democrats surpassed the number of registered Republicans in the county in August 2019. As the number of Democrats increased, the number of voters not aligned with a political party increased to comprise 27.4% of the county's voters in 2019. Republicans hold a 4-1 majority on the county Board of Supervisors. Seven out of the 12 state legislators from Orange County are also Republicans. Orange County has long been known as a Republican stronghold and has consistently sent Republican representatives to the state and federal legislatures — so strongly so, that Ronald Reagan described it as the place that "all the good Republicans go to die." Republican majorities in Orange County helped deliver California's electoral votes to Republican nominees Richard Nixon in 1960, 1968, and 1972; Gerald Ford in 1976; Reagan in 1980 and 1984; and George H. W. Bush in 1988. It was one of five counties in the state that voted for Barry Goldwater in 1964. In 1936 Orange County gave Franklin D. Roosevelt a majority of its presidential vote. The Republican nominee won Orange County in the next 19 presidential elections, until Hillary Clinton won the county with a majority in 2016. The Republican margin began to narrow in the 1990s and 2000s as the state trended Democratic, until, in the 2018 midterm elections, the Democratic Party gained control of all seven Congressional districts in the county, including all four districts anchored in the county. This prompted media outlets to declare Orange County's Republican leanings "dead", with the  "Los Angeles Times" running an op-ed titled, "An obituary to old Orange County, dead at age 129." For the 116th United States Congress in the United States House of Representatives, Orange County is split between seven congressional districts:  The 39th, 45th, 46th, and 48th districts are all centered in Orange County. The 38th and 47th have their population centers in Los Angeles County, while the 49th is primarily San Diego County-based. In the California State Senate, Orange County is split into 5 districts:  In the California State Assembly, Orange County is split into 7 districts:  According to the California Secretary of State, as of February 10, 2019, Orange County has 1,591,543 registered voters.
