Poll Paints Mixed Picture of Californian’s Views
A Quinnipiac University poll of registered California voters was released yesterday. While the survey was heavily focused on political views with questions about Governor Gavin Newsom running for president, which democrat should replace Senator Dianne Feinstein and how they feel about Vice President Kamala Harris, there were other responses that indicate discontent by voters of all political stripes regarding how state government is serving them. Pollsters report a sample size of around 1,000 registered voters telephoned randomly, with respondents weighted to reflect the political and human demographics of the state. Of great significance is what questions are asked, and whether there was built-in bias. When asked if they were satisfied or dissatisfied with the way things are going in California, a whopping 57% were somewhat or very dissatisfied, including 32% of democrats and 63% of independents. 64% of respondents are opposed to giving prison inmates the right to vote, including almost half of democrats and 70% of independents. A democrat-supported bill is currently moving through the California Legislature would allow inmate voting.
