Friend,
The results of the Courage California 2024 Primary Election Survey are
here!
Some of the responses we expected, some were a surprise, and thanks to
everyone who responded, Courage knows what to focus on to increase voter
turnout for the 2024 primary in less than 90 days!
We can’t build winning campaign plans without your help. Will you donate

Here’s a quick breakdown of the Courage California 2024 Primary survey
results:
👩🏻Let’s start where you think California is doing well. A full 57% think
that California is protecting our reproductive rights -- and it’s never
been more important than right now, when the Supreme Court is considering
taking the abortion pill off the market and women are being sued to stop
them from exercising their rights!
🏚️When it comes to how California can improve, almost two-thirds agree
that housing is the issue we struggle with the most. Housing far
outweighed the next biggest issues, the environment at 8.9% and education
at 5.1%.
📪Not surprisingly, the vast majority -- 97.5% -- plan to vote. And 81%
plan to vote by mail! It’s a presidential election, and 48% are excited to
vote in that race, while 27% are looking forward to the U.S. Senate
primary among Barbara Lee, Katie Porter, and Adam Schiff. Just 2.4% are
most excited about the state legislature.
🪸And considering that so many think California is failing when it comes to
housing, it’s no surprise that 36% think that homelessness and 34% think
housing affordability are among the most important issues when it comes to
choosing a candidate. Other top issues were climate change (67%), voting
rights (43%), and gun safety (35%).
🗳️And 63% of respondents count on Courage California’s Voter Guide to help
choose those candidates! Other important influences are the California
Democratic Party, various labor unions, and media sources.
We’re going to put these survey results to work!
We’re going to let candidates know that Courage California’s members want
them to put housing affordability first. Our team is preparing to release
our 9th Annual Courage Score -- which includes information about our
legislators’ housing votes -- in January, earlier than ever so people can
use it to inform their votes and get excited about the state’s primary
elections. Courage will get our voting guide into even more hands this
year to turn out more voters and specifically target outreach to new and
young voters!
As you consider your year-end giving, I hope you’ll make an investment in
Courage California's unique and critical work for a more progressive
California. We’re making these plans right now, so what you give right now
helps to determine the outcome in March!
