Just the Facts, Ma'am

The Public Policy Institute of California has released a fact sheet on likely voters in the next California election and it has some good news for the Democrats. See the full fact sheet here.

The number of registered voters as compared to 2006 has increased for both Democrats and Independents but has decreased for Republicans.

• Democrats increased from 6.7 million to 7.6 million
• Independents increased from 3.0 million to 3.4 million
• Republicans decreased from 5.4 million to 5.2 million

Even more impressive, the likely voters in the next election will be composed of:

• 44% Democrats
• 35% Republicans
• 18% Independents
• 3% Other

The outlook seems much better for the Democrats than previously reported.
