New Mexico got in-between Louisiana-Texas and that drive to California. Even today one could make a strong argument that AZ remains the strongest proponent of the number one CSA principle: secession (except for South Carolina, of course). It's also because of their gun craziness providing such a buy-and-sell market for Mexico gun dealer-gangs that parts of Mexico are such a wreck -- among other reasons too, of course, but this one contributes hugely.
Southern California was populated with southerners by 1860, btw, which contributes to the phenomenon that was Birth of A Nation and other Hollywood interpretations of history.
