Datamar has released a survey(PDF) on the statewide races. First, I’m not a big fan of Datamar. It tends to skew to the right. It’s traditionally a San Diego firm, with only a few scattered statewide polls.
So, to the polls:
Schwarzenegger, Feinstein Enjoy Comfortable Lead
Propositions 1A, 1B, 1E Passing, 1C, And 1D Failing
Propositions 83, 84, 85, 86, 90 Passing, 88, And 89 Failing
Proposition 87 Too Close To Call
Check out the link for the full details. But, as I said there are some serious problems with the poll. I’m not against robo-polls, but here’s the poll for Prop 90:
Q30. Proposition 90 is the Government Acquisition, Regulation of Private Property Initiative . It will prohibit state and local governments from condemning private property for other private uses. If the election were held today, would you vote yes or no on Proposition 90?
That’s the whole question. It gives a favorable response for over 61%. First, I know that we need to do more to define Prop 90. I know that there will be the typical shift towards no. But I just don’t think that’s all the information most voters will have heard about Prop 90 by the time the vote happens.
Oh, yeah, and by the way, that’s where we come in. tell all ov your friends to vote against Prop 90. By the way, if you don’t believe me about the questionable validity of this poll: Feinstein has only a 11 point lead in this poll. In fact, Arnold’s lead is bigger at 12.5 points. Crazy…
