Quote:
There are wide differences in voting dispositions between partisans. Democrats prefer Obama 78% to 9%, while Republicans support McCain 65% to 16%. However, Obama has a greater than three to one edge among this state's non-partisan voters (64% to 18%). Obama has also consolidated the support of Democrats and non-partisans who voted for Hillary Clinton in the February 5th California primary. Currently Obama is preferred by a 80% to 8% margin among these voters.There are also big differences in voting preference by political ideology. Strong conservatives are supporting McCain 74% to 8%, while those identifying themselves as moderately conservative back McCain 55% to 27%. However, both strong and moderate liberals are almost universally behind Obama. Obama also leads by greater than a two to one margin (59% to 23%) among middle-of-the-road voters.
Obama holds very large leads among voters in the state's two largest population centers, Los Angeles County and the San Francisco Bay Area, which collectively comprise a little less than half (44%) of all likely voters statewide. In the Bay Area in particular, Obama leads McCain six to one (73% to 12%). McCain is competitive with Obama only in the Central Valley and in Southern California outside of Los Angeles.
