Just as one's votes don't represent a sponsorship of every policy of the party they voted for, I think it's a stretch to say scaling business in the state represents a sponsorship of their social polices.

If anything, Tesla will be brining a bunch of blue voters from CA which could help to push back against such laws.

It is sponsorship in the most literal sense: the taxes paid by the company are propping up that state's administration and its policies. It's voting with one's feet.

The potential migration wave of blue voters is just a positive side effect.
