Ted,
The only city of consequence on that list is Oakland which has a long history of financial problems and will continue to have them for the foreseeable future. San Jose has financial reserves but is experiencing a grown pension burden. The rest on your list are inconsequential.
Oakland has long been a stronghold of liberal activism.

San Jose should NOT be teetering in and out of bankruptcy, given the tech boom, yet there they are.

Compton and Fresno are NOT inconsequential. They are major cities, Compton being the center of the African-American community in Los Angeles and Fresno being one of the biggest blue-collar cities away from the coast.
