California Governor Gavin Newsom's confrontation with President Trump over immigration raids has resulted in increased favorability ratings across the state. A recent UC Irvine School of Social Ecology poll indicates that nearly 60% of Californians now view Newsom positively, contrasting with previous disapproval ratings. While Trump gained some favor among California Republicans, independents showed a decrease in support. The poll comprised several statewide surveys, and analysis suggests Newsom's battle with Trump has been politically advantageous, particularly among Democrats and independents.
"By late June, nearly 6 in 10 Californians rated Newsom as 'somewhat favorable' or 'strongly favorable,' highlighting a significant boost in his approval ratings after his immigration stance against Trump."
"It’s important to recognize there are two different questions being asked about Newsom because of how we did our polling. June was a good month for Newsom's favorability among Californians."
