A majority of California voters believe Governor Gavin Newsom is focusing more on advancing his national political profile than addressing issues within the state, according to a recent survey.
Conducted by UC Berkeley's Institute of Governmental Studies and co-sponsored by The Los Angeles Times, the poll also found that 54% of registered voters think Newsom is acting in ways that would benefit a potential presidential campaign, while only 26% said he is primarily focused on governing California and solving its problems. 20% of respondents remained undecided.
