State Propositions: A Snapshot of Voters
Proposition 209, the initiative on affirmative action, had a huge
gender gap: Most men voted for it and a majority of women opposed it.
White voters were the only racial or ethnic group supporting 209. On
Proposition 215, the marijuana medical use initiative, all age groups
except the elderly were for it.

Source: Los Angeles Times exit poll conducted Nov. 5
HOW THE POLL WAS CONDUCTED: The Los Angeles Times Poll interviewed
5,723 voters who cast ballots in the general election Tuesday as they
exited 100 polling places across the nation. Also interviewed were 2,473
Californians as they exited an additional 40 polling places across the
state. Precincts were chosen based on the pattern of turnout in past
general elections. The survey was a self-administered, confidential
questionnaire. The margin of sampling error for all is plus or minus 3
percentage points. For some subgroups, the error margin may be somewhat
higher.
