58% : His opponent, Neva Parker, is endorsed by the Sierra Club, Planned Parenthood, the California Labor Federation and Dolores Huerta.Patterson, by comparison, has a 0% rating with the Sierra Club, a 0% rating with Planned Parenthood and a mediocre rating with the California Labor Federation.
51% : Prop. 35 would prevent communities from receiving funding for diverse health care needs and would limit elected officials from protecting their constituents.
