SACRAMENTO, CA – Carly for California Deputy Campaign Manager for Communications Julie Soderlund issued the following statement regarding the Public Policy Institute of California survey on the U.S. Senate race in California, which was released today:
“Today’s poll confirms yet again that Barbara Boxer is a highly vulnerable incumbent. More and more Californians are disenchanted by her lackluster record and, despite having been in office for 18 years, she is still unable to break the 50 percent threshold in this poll against any Republican candidate. Carly will continue to hold Boxer accountable for her disappointing tenure in the U.S. Senate, and as voters get to know Carly better in the coming months, her name identification will rise – as will her poll numbers. Meanwhile, Tom Campbell’s performance in both the primary and the general election matchups shows his electoral weakness, despite the higher name recognition that comes with having run for office nine times before. Once voters learn about his record championing higher taxes and bigger government, his support will erode quickly.”
