What is that deal, Mark? Why is it this way with the California electorate?

they would be sympathetic to a Republican who displays a high level of independence.

And I go back to Arnold Schwarzenegger being a great example of that 20 years ago, or 23 years ago when he ran in the recall, but then when he was the last governor who was elected.

And what do your results show in the PPIC poll for Proposition 40?

We saw Proposition 40 losing support in the last month, and now 52% say they would vote no on Proposition 40.

That's the first time that we've seen majority opposition.

And that measure is not upholding as strongly as two of the countermeasures.

Proposition 41 got 48%, and Proposition 42 got 51%.

The other tax measure on the ballot enjoys much stronger support.

Proposition 3, which would extend the tax on the wealthy, 58% said that they would vote yes on Proposition 3, which is the same as we saw in our September poll.

And what are the others that have majority support?
