Key findings

- Well below half of likely voters support Proposition 16, which would repeal the state’s ban on affirmative action in the public sector.
- Joe Biden leads Donald Trump by a wide margin, with 60 percent of likely voters favoring Biden/Harris and 31 percent favoring Trump/Pence.
- Most Californians remain concerned about contracting COVID-19, but a slim majority believe the worst is behind us.

About the survey
The PPIC Statewide Survey delivers objective, advocacy-free information on the perceptions, opinions, and public policy preferences of California residents. PPIC’s survey team invites input, comments, and suggestions from policy and public opinion experts and from its own advisory committee, but survey methods, questions, and content are determined solely by the survey team. PPIC relies on a rigorous survey methodology and is a charter member of the American Association for Public Opinion Research Transparency Initiative. The PPIC Statewide Survey is conducted regularly throughout the year in the key areas of government, the environment, K–12 education, and higher
education.
