‘Undecided/other’ has big lead in California’s U.S. Senate poll
Californians have the rare opportunity to vote for a new U.S. senator in two months – but nearly half of likely voters still haven’t settled on a candidate, according to the latest Field Poll.
Some 48 percent remain undecided or don’t prefer any of the five best-known candidates appearing on the June 7 presidential primary ballot. That large bloc has budged little since January, when it stood at 45 percent, and last May, at 61 percent.
