California Polls Show Johnson Lead Amid Historic Swing
California voters near 8 million registered for November 3. Johnson leads Goldwater around 60 to 40 in polls, but Democrats worry over Truman’s 1948 California margin, Nixon and Eisenhower precedents, and Goldwater’s return to California politics. Salinger faces Murphy in Senate race, while Proposition 14 seeks to curb regional open housing rules.
