Field Poll: Californians like Obama much more than rest of nation does
San Jose Mercury News ^ | April 8, 2014 | By Josh Richman

Posted on 04/08/2014 4:55:09 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

As President Barack Obama's job approval ratings continue to flounder nationwide, he can still look to California for affirmation.

A new Field Poll found 53 percent of California voters approve of Obama's job performance while 41 percent disapprove. That's nearly the opposite of the nation as a whole, where an average of major polls now finds a 53 percent disapproval and 43 percent approval -- not his all-time low, but nothing to brag about either.

Among California Democrats, 80 percent approve of Obama's job performance and 15 percent disapprove; among Republicans, 80 disapprove and 16 percent approve. Nonpartisans and third-party voters fall in between, with 49 percent approving and 41 percent disapproving.

"...among Republicans, 80 disapprove and 16 percent approve."

This proves that these polls are garbage.

California is Deep Blue. Its going to be one of the few good stories for the Democrats on an otherwise gloomy election night in November.

Yes unfortunately they can not only export liberals to other states like Colo and Texas, but the replacement “immigrants” make the state even more liberal than it was.

Probably accurate. Remember, California is home to a third of the Nation’s welfare recipients. And that number is several years old, it is probably higher now.

It’s the Granola State! Why should anyone be surprised? Once you get past the fruits and nuts, there’s nothing left but flakes.

They must have taken this poll in San Francisco or LA. If they get out in the big ag based counties he would fail in a poll.

Not among the several dozen friends, co-workers and family members in my area of the state. Must have only poled in Santa Barbara.
