PPIC Statewide Survey: Californians and Their Government

Some findings of the current survey:

• Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are in a close race in the Democratic presidential primary; both candidates lead Donald Trump in potential November matchups.
• Democrats Kamala Harris and Loretta Sanchez lead the top-two primary for the U.S. Senate, but almost a third of likely voters are undecided.
• The Republican Party’s favorability rating has dropped sharply since December, while the Democratic Party’s favorability rating has held steady.
• Most Californians and likely voters support extending Proposition 30 income taxes, increasing the tax on cigarettes, and legalizing marijuana.
