The Democratic Party responded by taking an anti-corporate, anti freedom of attainment position. In 1894, Democrat <a href="/wiki/James_Budd" title="James Budd">James Budd</a> was elected to the governorship, and the Democratic Party attempted to make good on their promises to reform the booming railroad industry. The party began working closely with the state's railroad commission to create fair rates for passengers and to eliminate monopolies the railroad companies held over the state. The main effort focused on making railroads public avenues of transportation similar to streets and roads. This measure passed and was a great victory for the Democrats, but the honeymoon would not last.<sup id="cite_ref-Williams_Hal_1973_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Williams_Hal_1973-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Budd was to be the last Democratic governor for thirty years. The struggle between the anti-monopolists and the railroad companies was, however, a key and defining issue for the Democratic Party for some time. </p><p>Despite their relative lack of power during this period, the Democrats in California were still active in pursuing reform. The party supported fairer railroad policies and crusaded for <a href="/wiki/Tariff" title="Tariff">tariff</a> reform.<sup id="cite_ref-Williams_Hal_1973_8-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Williams_Hal_1973-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The party also supported the large scale railroad strikes that sprung up statewide. The corruption of the time in both the railroad companies and the government led to a change in political dynamic. The people of the state moved away from both of the main parties and the <a href="/wiki/Progressive_Movement" class="mw-redirect" title="Progressive Movement">Progressive Movement</a> began. </p><p>While the Progressives were successful in creating positive reform and chasing out corruption, the movement drained away many of the Democratic Party's members. As their movement ended, the Republicans won the governorship, but the Democratic Party had a distinct voter advantage. </p><p>In 1932, <a href="/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt" title="Franklin D. Roosevelt">Franklin D. Roosevelt</a> was elected president, and the Power balance between the Republicans and the Democrats in California equalized. However, as Roosevelt's <a href="/wiki/New_Deal" title="New Deal">New Deal</a> policies began to raise the nation out of the depression, Democratic strength mounted. <a href="/wiki/Culbert_Olson" title="Culbert Olson">Culbert Olson</a> was elected to the governorship, but his term was rocky, and both parties organized against him. Shortly thereafter, <a href="/wiki/Earl_Warren" title="Earl Warren">Earl Warren</a> and the Republicans regained power again. </p><p>The California Democratic Party needed a new strategy to regain power in the state. A strategy of re-organization and popular mobilization emerged and resulted in the creation of the <a href="/wiki/California_Democratic_Council" title="California Democratic Council">California Democratic Council</a>. The CDC, as it became known, was a way for members of the party from all levels of government to come together, and, as such, the party became more unified.

W. Bush's approval rating to tank within the state, giving an opening for the Democratic party to break through and eventually become the largest party. Starting with the double digit victory of Bill Clinton, this became the first time a Democrat had carried the state of California since 1964. Afterwards, a consolidation of the Latino and Asian vote would strengthen the Democratic party's hold in California, when these groups had previously been considered core Republican supporters within the state. </p><p>The California Democratic Party began re-organizing in 1991, and in 1992, the party won the greatest victories in the history of California.
