The latest Field Poll is out and though the news is not good for Prop 93 supporters or opponents of the gaming compacts, the most important thing may be the number of voters still undecided here on the eve of the election. In the table numbers in Parentheses are early Jan #s and December #s.
Prop/Response | Prop 93 | Props 94-97 |
Yes | 33 (39 50) | 47 (42 39) |
No | 46 (39 32) | 34 (37 33) |
Undecided | 21 (22 18) | 19 (21 28) |
And 80% of voters have heard of Prop 93, compared up from 65% earlier in January and from 25% in December.
Interestingly, the recent Field presidential poll also showed a substantial number of voters still undecided. But for 93 to pass and 94-97 to fail, those undecideds will have to break heavily in one direction. And the trendlines are not favorable for 93 supporters and 94-97 opponents.
