Admitting that you have a problem is the first step to solving it. Californians are now taking that first step.

A poll from the University of California, Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies and the Los Angeles Times found that 56% of Californians think their state is headed down the wrong path, compared to 36% who think the state is doing well. The poll put Gov. Gavin Newsom’s approval at 48%, with 47% disapproving.
