Election 2008: California Presidential Election

Rasmussen Reports

 

In California, the latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey finds Barack Obama leading John McCain 50% to 43%. That's an improvement for McCain who trailed Obama by fifteen points in March.

 

If Hillary Clinton is able to come back and win the Democratic nomination, she holds a slightly smaller lead over McCain, 47% to 42%. Clinton led McCain by seven points a month ago.

 ... 

Nationally, the race between McCain and either Democrat remains competitive in the Rasmussen Reports Presidential Tracking Poll.

...

Thirty-nine percent (39%) of the state's voters say that the economy is the most important issue of Election 2008. Twenty-one percent (21%) say that the War in Iraq is the top issue while 11% name Immigration as the highest priority.

...

There is some familiarity with the candidate's positions on these issues. By a 47% to 13% margin, California voters know that McCain is pro-life (40% are not sure). By a 61% to 7% margin, voters know that Obama is pro-choice. By a 61% to 24% margin, voters in California oppose drivers' licenses for illegal immigrants. However, 52% are not sure where McCain stands on the issue and 56% do not know Obama's position.
