Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : The answer was always loud and clear, DeMaio told Playbook in an interview after registering a Californians for Voter ID committee earlier this month.
54% : The nascent campaign released polling from Public Opinion Strategies showing high levels of support for new laws requiring ID cards, including from over 50 percent of Democrats.
33% : "What he introduced is way too complicated, way too long, way too open to attack, and has too many issues that are not related to voter ID that are going to be controversial," Schubert said.
