Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : In the month leading up to the recall election, a time when the COVID-19 Delta variant was raging and polls showed most Californians supported the governor's actions to stem the spread of the coronavirus, Elder promised to repeal the Newsom administration's mandates requiring students to wear masks in public schools and teachers, state employees and healthcare workers to be vaccinated.
48% : Elder provided red meat positions to GOP voters, opposing abortion rights and supporting offshore oil drilling while capitalizing on his support for Trump -- stances abhorrent to most Democratic voters in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans by almost 2 to 1.
