Electile Dysfunction: Obama Under-performing in Ultra-Liberal California
- Post 29 October 2012
Even in ultra-liberal California, a state Barack Obama won by a record 24 points in 2008, Obama only has a 14-point lead over Mitt Romney. Enthusiasm for Obama's reelection is down considerably.
According to a USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times poll, Obama leads Mitt Romney, 54%-40%, but his lead is "diminished" because of his failure in 2012 to "pull in people who don't traditionally support Democrats."
More than half of Californians (51%) also thought the nation was moving in the wrong direction under Obama. This is yet another "blue" state in which Romney is doing better than McCain in 2008.
