A recent statewide survey conducted by PPIC reveals significant insights into the sentiments of Californians regarding state government and upcoming ballot measures. The survey shows that voters are leaning towards support for bonds, while there is less enthusiasm for housing initiatives. Key ballot propositions have emerged as critical focal points in the lead-up to Election Day, with many voters expressing a strong preference for popular measures, particularly an anti-crime initiative that has drawn attention from candidates in tight House races. Interestingly, the survey indicates that Californians tend to trust their state government more than the federal government, providing a backdrop for the forthcoming elections and highlighting the various uphill battles facing candidates and propositions alike.
