The polling average of Nov.
Six out of 10 voters supported Proposition 50, Gov. Gavin Newloom and his Allies are redistricting Demotion states that will increase the number of federal governments in Congress funded from time to time. About 38% of opposition voters oppose the ballot measure.
It is noteworthy in the arcane special election about the arcane and complex renewal process, 71% of voters said they heard a large amount about the voting rate, according to the poll.
“That’s surprising,” said Mark Dicamillo, director of the IGS Poll. “Whether it’s the grace of an esoteric topic that affects their daily lives, it’s something voters pay attention to.”
That could be because nearly $158 million was donated in less than three months to major campaign committees supporting and opposing the reports, according to campaign fundraising reports filed with the state last week. Voters in the state are bombarded with political advertisements.
Californians watching Tuesday’s World Series game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Days see for yourself.
In the first minutes of this game, former President Obama, Newslom, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other prominent Democrats cost at least $250,000 to air, according to a Democratic media buyer not associated with the campaign.
According to the poll, the split among voters was largely Partisan, with more than 9 out of 10 Democrats supporting Proposition 50 and the same proportion of Republicans opposed. Among voters who belong to other parties, or identify as “no party preference,” 57% approved the ballot measure, while 39% opposed it.
Only 2% of surveyed voters said they were not elected, Dicamillo said, which is highly unusual.
Historically, non-partisan voters, especially independents, tend to maintain opposing voting patterns they are uncertain about, preferring to stick with the status quo, he said.
“Usually there has always been a rule – look at the impartiality of past voting, and think big,” he said. “But this polling shows that there are very few of them out there. Voters have beads on this.”
In the affluent cities of Los Angeles County and the San Francisco Bay area, Proposition 50 led by wide margins, the poll found. Voters in Orange County, the Inland State and the central valley were well split.
Renewal battles continue in states across the nation, but California’s Proposition 50 has received the lion’s share of national attention and donations. The Affairs Committee supporting Proposition 50 has raised more money than the top two committees opposing it, so much so that the governor this week told supporters to stop sending checks.
The US House of Representatives is controlled by the GOP but is narrowly divided. The party that wins control of Congress in the 2026 midterm elections will decide whether Trump can continue to dictate his agenda or whether he is the subject of an investigation and possible further investigation efforts.
California’s 52 counties — the most of any state — are currently drawn by the VOTER-approved Electoral Commission once every ten years following the U.S. Census.
But after Trump urged GOP leaders in Texas this summer to redraw their districts to bolster the number of Republicans in Congress, he asked voters to allow voters to allow the creation of district boundaries. If passed, Proposition 50 would add five more Democrats to the state’s delegation.
50 supporters have painted their effort as a proxy against Trump and his policies that have affected the people of California, such as the deployment of immigration guards on the streets of Los Angeles.
Opponents of the proposal focused on the mechanics of renewal, arguing the ballot measure undermined the will of California voters who put an independent recovery commission in place more than a decade ago.
“The results suggest that the Democrats succeeded in finding the debate surrounding the proposal surrounding the support or opposition of the Republican President,” rather than the general topic of statehood, the statement said.
Early voting data suggests that the pro-proposition 50 has won.
As of Tuesday, about 5 million — about 21% of the 23 million voters — have ballots, according to trackers run by Democratic and Republican campaigners.
Democrats outnumber Republicans among the state’s registered voters, and even beat them in returning votes, 52% to 27%. Voters who do not have a party preference or who support other political parties returned 21% of the votes.
The Berkeley / SA Times Polls obtained by the latest surveys conducted by the Public Compholan Institute of California, CBS News / Yougov and Emerson College.
Among voters surveyed by the Berkeley / SA Times Poll, 67% of Californians already voted for Proposition 50, while 33% said they were facing a fight with the voting process.
The proposal also had an edge among those who planned to vote but had not yet cast their votes, with 57% saying they planned to support the effort and 40% saying they planned to oppose it.
However, 70% of voters who plan to cast ballots in person on November 4, Independence Day, said they would vote against the nomination. Fewer than 3 in 10 who said they would vote at their polling station said they would support a mid-term resumption.
The numbers highlight a recent shift in the way Americans vote. Historically, Republicans voted by mail in the morning, while Democrats cast ballots on election day. But this dynamic has increased in recent years after questioning the security of early voting and postal voting, including just when he criticized the 50 propositions.
“No mail or ‘early’ voting, yes to VOTER ID! Look at how California voting is completely dishonest! Millions of votes were ‘mailed in,'” Trump wrote on his social media platform, social truth. “Get Smart Republicans, before it’s too late!!!”
GOP leaders across the country pushed back on these messages without calling out the President. Urging Republicans to vote early, they argue that waiting to vote gives Democrats a big advantage in California elections.
Among the arguments raised by the campaigns, it is possible that the voters agreed with all the supporters of the 50 propositions, especially that the voting measure will help Demotrats to gain control of the house, while his efforts to plant the 2026 elections, according to the polls. But they also acknowledged that the ballot measure will further reduce GOP power in California, and that they don’t trust Pratesan lawmakers to draw RENDI districts.
