But former Bush and Obama Administration official Neel Kashkari was feeling confident enough to address his supporters a few minutes ago. “We feel great, alright? We feel great,” he said. “The early returns are very encouraging.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kashkari leads Assemblyman Tim Donnelly by about 55,000 votes, or a bit less than three percentage points. While Kashkari trailed in most polls, he was able to gain back ground at the end of the race by spending about $2 million of his own money, and by promoting the endorsements of high-profile Republican leaders like Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney. “I just got a call from Mitt Romney,” Kashkari told the crowd. “Governor Romney was very encouraged by the early returns.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update: 9:10 p.m.:\u003c/strong> With about ten percent of precincts reporting, Neel Kashkari is leading Tim Donnelly by about 50,000 votes in the race for the second general election gubernatorial slot.

Or are the numbers as high as he can go, a political ceiling?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">One thing's for sure: Among everyone not named Jerry Brown, Donnelly remains in the lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">The \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/main/publication.asp?i=1103\" target=\"_blank\">new poll released by the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California\u003c/a> finds the tea party-aligned assemblyman from San Bernardino County favored by 30 percent of Republicans — a 10-point jump from last month's PPIC poll and 9 points ahead of his GOP rival, newcomer \u003ca href=\"http://www.neelkashkari.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Neel Kashkari\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Among all likely voters, Donnelly now bests Kashkari by 5 points, 15 percent to 10 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">That being said, the race remains solidly in the hands of Gov. Jerry Brown, who leads the gubernatorial field in the new poll with 48 percent support among all likely voters, and a 54 percent job approval rating. Twenty-seven percent of those surveyed say they haven't made up their mind, a group that has shrunk since April but whose size makes clear that there are still a lot of fence-sitters in these final days of campaigning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">(And as pointed out in April, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/04/23/poll-jerry-brown-draws-california-republican-votes\" target=\"_blank\">some Republicans are just fine with filling in the oval next to Brown's name on their ballot\u003c/a>; in fact, the veteran Democrat is now the choice of 13 percent of GOP voters.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">While Donnelly's support has grown, the biggest change from \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/main/publication.asp?i=1097\" target=\"_blank\">PPIC's April statewide poll\u003c/a> is the rise in support among the ranks of the GOP for Kashkari — from just 5 percent to now 21 percent. That's no doubt due, in part, to the former Treasury official's well-financed operation starting to kick into gear — a deluge of mailers and political advertisements. It may also have helped that virtually every single well-known Republican in California, from ex-governors to legislative leaders and to even 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney, have all now endorsed Kashkari's bid to unseat Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Those Republican VIPs have started \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2014/05/pete-wilson-blasts-tim-donnelly-saying-he-would-damage-gop.html\" target=\"_blank\">beating their political drums that Tim Donnelly is too extreme\u003c/a>, that he's so far to the right that he'll drag down the entire GOP ticket in 2014. Perhaps that, too, has helped Kashkari.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">And yet, Donnelly maintains a lead. In fact, Kashkari needs to woo close to six of every 10 undecided voters in the new PPIC poll (across all party allegiances and assuming already committed voters don't shift) to beat Donnelly. It's possible, but Team Neel needs to start scoring some runs ... and fast.

(Scott Detrow)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">To that end, the Kashkari camp has been ramping up its criticism of Donnelly's behavior — specifically, the assemblyman's recent jabs at \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/opinionshop/2014/05/15/tim-donnelly-on-sharia-law-shot-fair-game-video/\" target=\"_blank\">Kashkari's appearance at a 2008 Islamic finance conference\u003c/a>. Kashkari is also starting to jab back at his rival, a Republican assemblyman; \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/225517053/Neel-Kashkari-mailer-May-21-2014\" target=\"_blank\">a new mailer accuses Donnelly of being a \"wasteful spender\"\u003c/a> when it comes to campaign expenses and \"a wreck\" for allegedly missing business and personal tax payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Still, Donnelly continues to poll strongly among several voter subgroups. He holds a 6-point lead over Kashkari in the new PPIC survey among the most wealthy voters; an 8-point lead among both moderates and men; and an 11-point lead over his GOP rival among Latinos — a voting bloc many assume would be turned off by \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/nov05election/2014/04/09/gop-gov-candidate-tim-donnelly-doesnt-apologize-for-being-a-minuteman-giving-a-minuteman-speech/\" target=\"_blank\">Donnelly's past as a Minuteman volunteer and his rhetoric on illegal immigration\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">But again, do those numbers represent Tim Donnelly's ceiling — his upper limit — among various voter subgroups? After all, the undecideds in this poll remain high. And among those who tell the PPIC that they are tuning in to news about the race for governor, Donnelly's advantage over Kashkari narrows to just 3 points.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">And that's where money could play its familiar role.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">State \u003ca href=\"http://cal-access.sos.ca.gov/Campaign/Committees/Detail.aspx?id=1354289&session=2013&view=late1\" target=\"_blank\">campaign records\u003c/a> show Tim Donnelly has raised about $207,000 since the last full disclosure report in March, a report that also listed $149,000 in unpaid bills. In contrast, \u003ca href=\"http://cal-access.sos.ca.gov/Campaign/Committees/Detail.aspx?id=1362971&session=2013&view=late1\" target=\"_blank\">Kashkari has raised $2.7 million\u003c/a> since the March filing — $2 million of that coming from \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2014/05/neel-kashkari-drops-another-1-million-into-governors-race.html\" target=\"_blank\">his own personal bank account\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Kashkari is spending that money to reach out to the GOP base, voters who self-identify as conservatives.

Twenty-seven percent of those surveyed say they haven't made up their mind, a group that has shrunk since April but whose size makes clear that there are still a lot of fence-sitters in these final days of campaigning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">(And as pointed out in April, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/04/23/poll-jerry-brown-draws-california-republican-votes\" target=\"_blank\">some Republicans are just fine with filling in the oval next to Brown's name on their ballot\u003c/a>; in fact, the veteran Democrat is now the choice of 13 percent of GOP voters.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">While Donnelly's support has grown, the biggest change from \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/main/publication.asp?i=1097\" target=\"_blank\">PPIC's April statewide poll\u003c/a> is the rise in support among the ranks of the GOP for Kashkari — from just 5 percent to now 21 percent. That's no doubt due, in part, to the former Treasury official's well-financed operation starting to kick into gear — a deluge of mailers and political advertisements. It may also have helped that virtually every single well-known Republican in California, from ex-governors to legislative leaders and to even 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney, have all now endorsed Kashkari's bid to unseat Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Those Republican VIPs have started \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2014/05/pete-wilson-blasts-tim-donnelly-saying-he-would-damage-gop.html\" target=\"_blank\">beating their political drums that Tim Donnelly is too extreme\u003c/a>, that he's so far to the right that he'll drag down the entire GOP ticket in 2014. Perhaps that, too, has helped Kashkari.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">And yet, Donnelly maintains a lead. In fact, Kashkari needs to woo close to six of every 10 undecided voters in the new PPIC poll (across all party allegiances and assuming already committed voters don't shift) to beat Donnelly. It's possible, but Team Neel needs to start scoring some runs ... and fast. Keep in mind that \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/Political_Data/status/469128828909260800\" target=\"_blank\">voters are already casting ballots by mail\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_129607\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/03/16/california-republican-convention-kashkari-donnelly-battle-for-support/rs9327_photo/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-129607\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-129607\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/03/RS9327_photo-640x480.jpg\" alt=\"Former U.S. Treasury official Neel Kashkari speaks to campaign volunteers.

(Scott Detrow)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">To that end, the Kashkari camp has been ramping up its criticism of Donnelly's behavior — specifically, the assemblyman's recent jabs at \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/opinionshop/2014/05/15/tim-donnelly-on-sharia-law-shot-fair-game-video/\" target=\"_blank\">Kashkari's appearance at a 2008 Islamic finance conference\u003c/a>. Kashkari is also starting to jab back at his rival, a Republican assemblyman; \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/225517053/Neel-Kashkari-mailer-May-21-2014\" target=\"_blank\">a new mailer accuses Donnelly of being a \"wasteful spender\"\u003c/a> when it comes to campaign expenses and \"a wreck\" for allegedly missing business and personal tax payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Still, Donnelly continues to poll strongly among several voter subgroups. He holds a 6-point lead over Kashkari in the new PPIC survey among the most wealthy voters; an 8-point lead among both moderates and men; and an 11-point lead over his GOP rival among Latinos — a voting bloc many assume would be turned off by \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/nov05election/2014/04/09/gop-gov-candidate-tim-donnelly-doesnt-apologize-for-being-a-minuteman-giving-a-minuteman-speech/\" target=\"_blank\">Donnelly's past as a Minuteman volunteer and his rhetoric on illegal immigration\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">But again, do those numbers represent Tim Donnelly's ceiling — his upper limit — among various voter subgroups? After all, the undecideds in this poll remain high. And among those who tell the PPIC that they are tuning in to news about the race for governor, Donnelly's advantage over Kashkari narrows to just 3 points.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">And that's where money could play its familiar role.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">State \u003ca href=\"http://cal-access.sos.ca.gov/Campaign/Committees/Detail.aspx?id=1354289&session=2013&view=late1\" target=\"_blank\">campaign records\u003c/a> show Tim Donnelly has raised about $207,000 since the last full disclosure report in March, a report that also listed $149,000 in unpaid bills. In contrast, \u003ca href=\"http://cal-access.sos.ca.gov/Campaign/Committees/Detail.aspx?id=1362971&session=2013&view=late1\" target=\"_blank\">Kashkari has raised $2.7 million\u003c/a> since the March filing — $2 million of that coming from \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2014/05/neel-kashkari-drops-another-1-million-into-governors-race.html\" target=\"_blank\">his own personal bank account\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Kashkari is spending that money to reach out to the GOP base, voters who self-identify as conservatives. And it might be working; in the new PPIC poll, Donnelly's lead among conservatives has shrunk to 2 points, with 34 percent still undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">\"That is the big group,\" says PPIC president and pollster Mark Baldassare on conservatives' power in the GOP. \"And that group is just not decided on who's going to carry the banner for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Body\">Donnelly \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/tim-donnelly-gop-for-governor\" target=\"_blank\">prides himself on his bare-bones campaign\u003c/a> and revels in his \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/electdonnelly/status/468914820260315136\" target=\"_blank\">status as the GOP \"front-runner\u003c/a>.\" But like any good horse race, this one's tightening down the final straightaway and toward the finish line. The contest for second place — Brown will undoubtedly finish first once the votes are counted — will be determined by who gets those undecided voters.

Kashkari waved off Donnelly’s calls for a debate at \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/03/16/california-republican-convention-kashkari-donnelly-battle-for-support\">the March Republican Convention\u003c/a>.

That money has allowed him to run a limited television advertising campaign, but is far short of the millions of dollars needed to air sustained advertising to boost his name recognition.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/136266/republicans-donnelly-kashkari-face-off-in-talk-show-debate","authors":["256"],"programs":["news_6944"],"series":["news_6304"],"categories":["news_13"],"tags":["news_6317","news_30","news_5532","news_1170"],"featImg":"news_117107","label":"news_6944"},"news_135555":{"type":"posts","id":"news_135555","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"news","id":"135555","score":null,"sort":[1399897812000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"on-the-campaign-trail-with-the-gops-tim-donnelly","title":"On the Campaign Trail With the GOP's Tim Donnelly","publishDate":1399897812,"format":"aside","headTitle":"California Election Watch 2014 | News Fix | KQED News","labelTerm":{"term":6944,"site":"news"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_135595\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/tim-donnelly-gop-for-governor/rs10325_photo-hpf/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-135595\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-135595\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/05/RS10325_photo-hpf.jpg\" alt=\"3)Tim Donnelly speaks to a group of campaign volunteers in Orange County.

Donnelly’s last campaign finance report showed he barely had enough cash on hand to pay the annual salary of a single minimum-wage employee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet, with less than a month to go before the June primary, it’s Donnelly — not former Bush administration official Neel Kashkari — who is viewed as the favorite to advance and face Gov. Jerry Brown on the fall ballot. Seventeen percent of likely voters supported Donnelly in the last Field Poll. Kashkari, who ran the federal Troubled Asset Relief Program, clocked in at just 2 percent. While TARP may have saved the country from a depression, the 12-figure bailout remains toxic among conservative voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’re doing is not trying to elect a different guy with a better haircut,” Donnelly had told a group of 30 campaign volunteers that morning. “We’re trying to unite people under a banner of liberty. And it’s liberty that matters. This is individual liberty. This was the cause of the first revolution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And this is certainly not good news from the Republican Party establishment’s point of view. “I think Republican Party leaders, donors, candidates, elected representatives — a great number of them would be alarmed if Donnelly is representing the Republicans in the fall against Gov. Brown,” said Rob Stutzman, a Republican strategist who isn’t affiliated with either Donnelly or Kashkari. Republican leaders are concerned about Donnelly for a range of reasons — but primarily because of Donnelly’s history as a leader of the controversial Minuteman movement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'California Is Occupied Territory'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a windy day in the eastern San Diego County town of Jacumba.

Immigration reform advocate Enrique Morones points to the spot where the fence abruptly ends, and to the white Border Patrol jeep slowly making its way along the structure. This is the spot where Morones and his Border Angels group confronted Donnelly and his Minutemen, who were there to symbolically guard the border against undocumented immigrants trying to cross into the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Donnelly was part of the initial group of Minutemen who massed along the Arizona border in April 2005. Founder Jim Gilchrist said the initial goal was to bring attention to undocumented immigrants who were crossing the border illegally. \"If you want to bring attention to an issue or a matter, or create public debate, create the largest dog-and-pony show you can about the issue,\" Gilchrist said. \"I set out to bring as many Americans … to the border as I possibly could.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> Donnelly doesn’t pull punches. Last summer he told a Yolo County tea party group that 'Obamacare was just a Trojan horse to introduce full-blown socialism.' \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Donnelly kept a journal during his Arizona experience. He read part of it on air in a 2005 MSNBC documentary. “Somewhere out here our quarry awaits,” he wrote at one point. “It is good to feel the sun on my face while the morning chill is still fresh on my skin. It is cold out here in the desert at night. I have a sense I might make history.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In October 2005, Donnelly organized his own border watch in Jacumba. \"My goal was to leverage the media,\" he said, into paying more attention to border issues. “California is occupied territory,” he told MSNBC at the time. “We are no longer part of the United States in any recognizable regard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Morones and his Border Angels group met Donnelly and the other armed volunteers with counter-demonstrations. “This was the worst of the American spirit,” Morones recalled. “Racism being played out as if it was a game. With these beer-drinking, gun-toting racists along the border.” Nearly a decade later, the Minutemen are long gone. But Morones still drives along the border, placing jugs of water in the desert to help people making the crossing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Donnelly, of course, rejects the racist claim. He says his stand was about laws, not race. He points to Latino supporters backing his current run, and people like an African-American woman who came up to him during the country club event to voice concerns about Common Core. “Everybody wants to put me in a box. Look at all the people that come up to me, that talk to me,” he said. “They’re the wrong color, according to the newspaper. I’m not supposed to be winning among minorities — particularly Latinos. And yet I have a tremendous following.” Indeed, Donnelly did have more Latino support than Kashkari in the last round of polls — though it was still in the single digits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Deeply-held Conservative Views\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since his time with the Minutemen, Donnelly has reinvented himself as a Republican assemblyman representing the San Bernardino County community of Twin Peaks. He’s maintained his firm views on immigration, opposing recent laws granting in-state college tuition and driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants. Donnelly has also made the Second Amendment and gun rights a premier cause,\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-donnelly-legislature-20140422-story.html#page=1\"> and has developed a reputation\u003c/a> for raising conservative concerns about nearly every bill that makes its way through the Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Donnelly doesn’t pull punches. Last summer he told a Yolo County tea party group that “Obamacare was just a Trojan horse to introduce full-blown socialism” into the country. At this spring’s Republican convention, he called Gov. Jerry Brown “a Marxist-progressive parading as a Democrat.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that doesn’t mean Donnelly’s angry. He calls for more civility in politics, and often delivers his speeches with a smirk or a grin. “No – he’s a Marxist-progressive parading as a Democrat,” he said about Brown. “Doesn’t mean I can’t like him and want to have a beer with him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, Donnelly can be pretty funny. He loves to do Bill Clinton impressions, alternating between “I feel your pain” and “I … do not … recall.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The open question among political observers is whether Donnelly's strong showing in the polls is a ceiling or a floor, and whether he can expand his base beyond tea party conservatives. Donnelly is convinced it's a floor, and that he can win over California’s majority of independent and Democratic voters by talking about economic issues, such as Toyota’s decision to move a major plant from Southern California to Texas. “The very first thing that I would have done as governor — I would have actually shown up, and been in their boardroom, invited or not, and said, 'What’s going on? Why are you leaving? What was the final straw? What can we do to keep you here?' ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Donnelly is also pushing to expand California’s film tax credits in order to stop the exodus of film work to states like Georgia and Pennsylvania, which offer companies major financial incentives to shoot on location. He made a point to knock on Democrats’ and independents’ doors when he canvassed Orange County neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>No Love Lost Between Donnelly and Republican Leaders\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for every broader economic theme, there are statements and stances that could alienate voters. Last week he accused his Hindu opponent, Neel Kashkari, of supporting Sharia, or Islamic law, during his tenure at the Treasury Department. Many observers viewed that as an attempt to insinuate that Kashkari is Muslim, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-donnelly-sharia-20140509-story.html\">Republican Rep. Darrell Issa, a conservative firebrand himself, called it\u003c/a> “hateful and ignorant garbage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Republican leaders think Donnelly and his tea party views would hurt the party’s brand, Donnelly is happy to return the favor.. He told an Orange County voter that the Democratic and Republican parties “both suck.” Speaking to reporters in Sacramento, Donnelly said, “Political parties aren’t the answer. They’re the problem. I really haven’t seen them do anything that’s of any significance — that’s advancing the cause of liberty forward.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even if he’s on his own, Donnelly has a good shot at topping Kashkari in June. \u003ca href=\"http://field.com/fieldpollonline/subscribers/Rls2463.pdf\">The most recent Field Poll had him leading\u003c/a> the former Bush and Obama administration official by 15 points among likely voters.

Jerry Brown (Jim Watson/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>It's one of the most familiar sayings in the world of politics: the only poll that matters is the official one taken on Election Day. But polls do offer a snapshot in time of a campaign ... which is why a brand new glimpse into the 2014 race for governor is so interesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And here it is: \u003ca href=\"http://www.neelkashkari.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Neel Kashkari\u003c/a>, the preferred pick of many in California's Republican establishment, looks to have less support from voters \u003cem>in his own party\u003c/em> than Gov. Jerry Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, you read that right — less than six weeks from the June 3 election, a new statewide poll shows the veteran Democratic governor with more Republican support than one of the most talked about Republican challengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/main/publication.asp?i=1097\" target=\"_blank\">poll from the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California\u003c/a> finds Brown with 46 percent support among likely voters overall, a five-fold lead over any of his potential challengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But among Republicans, he's the choice of 7 percent of those surveyed, while Kashkari only musters 5 percent GOP voter support.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> 31 percent of GOP voters think he's doing a good job as governor.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>A small plurality of Republican voters — 20 percent — favor \u003ca href=\"http://www.electtimdonnelly.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Tim Donnelly\u003c/a>, the Tea Party-aligned assemblyman from San Bernardino County. \u003ca href=\"http://www.andrewblount.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Andrew Blount\u003c/a>, the mayor of Laguna Beach, barely edges the governor among Republicans with 8 percent support. The vast majority of GOP voters — 58 percent — are undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The PPIC survey is just the latest statewide to show Donnelly, a staunch conservative who gets a warm reception from die-hard GOP audiences, as the de facto frontrunner. And yet his support remains relatively small, with some political observers arguing that Donnelly has limited appeal beyond core Republican voters. Some have started publicly saying they fear a Brown vs. Donnelly fall matchup \u003ca href=\"http://articles.latimes.com/2014/apr/09/local/la-me-republicans-california-20140410\" target=\"_blank\">could hurt the GOP's chances in other races\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet Kashkari, \u003ca href=\"http://www.news10.net/story/news/politics/john-myers/2014/03/13/neel-kashkari-looks-for-momentum-to-become-governor/6391829/\" target=\"_blank\">a former federal official who crafted the TARP effort of 2008 and a first-time candidate for office\u003c/a>, clearly has failed so far to make any noticeable inroads among likely voters. And it's not as though he's not trying: the 40-year-old Newport Beach resident has been traveling the state for more than a year, he's released relatively substantive position papers on jobs and education (the latter coming just Tuesday), and it's hard to browse a California news or political website without seeing a \"Kashkari for Governor\" ad pop up on the screen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, Brown seems to be unaffected by the increasing number of attacks being launched by either Kashkari or Donnelly; the PPIC poll finds 56 percent of likely voters think he's doing a good job as governor. That number is higher than his base support in PPIC's question about the actual primary election, but that may be because some voters don't feel the need to vote for Brown in June ... given he's assured a spot on the November ballot, and this is the first statewide June election in which all voters can vote for all candidates (\u003ca href=\"http://www.kcet.org/news/ballotbrief/election-law/californias-new-top-two-open-primaries-explained.html\" target=\"_blank\">with only the top two advancing to the fall ballot\u003c/a>).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Kashkari can gain any traction with voters, education issues could be part of his arsenal. The PPIC poll, which is largely about how Californians view K-12 and higher education, shows Brown is on thinner ice with the electorate when it comes to schools. Just 33 percent of likely voters approve of his work on public schools. And on Tuesday, Kashkari released his thoughts on schools -- which, in a nutshell, are to send tax dollars to individual schools and let them pretty much do whatever they want with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fifty percent of adults polled by PPIC say the quality of education in California schools is a big problem, and 55 percent say have the same high level of worry about the state budget's treatment of schools. The governor's signature education reform -- last year's shift of more unrestricted dollars to English learners and students from low-income families -- draws support in this poll, but just 27 percent of those surveyed actually knew of the program by name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown's support among Republicans, who may see him as the most moderate of the Democratic voices in Sacramento, is even higher when it comes to his approval numbers. 31 percent of GOP voters think he's doing a good job as governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Measuring Brown's appeal among Republicans depends, of course, on whether any given poll has a reasonably sized sample of GOP voters. Only 28 percent of California voters polled by PPIC identified themselves as Republican, with 44 percent as Democrats and 22 percent as independents. That's pretty much in line with official voter registration stats, but it might be an undersampling for the June election, where historically GOP turnout has been strong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But no one knows that a larger Republican sampling would have meant anything different ... and so, for now, these numbers raise some interesting questions.

But polls do offer a snapshot in time of a campaign ... which is why a brand new glimpse into the 2014 race for governor is so interesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And here it is: \u003ca href=\"http://www.neelkashkari.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Neel Kashkari\u003c/a>, the preferred pick of many in California's Republican establishment, looks to have less support from voters \u003cem>in his own party\u003c/em> than Gov. Jerry Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, you read that right — less than six weeks from the June 3 election, a new statewide poll shows the veteran Democratic governor with more Republican support than one of the most talked about Republican challengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/main/publication.asp?i=1097\" target=\"_blank\">poll from the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California\u003c/a> finds Brown with 46 percent support among likely voters overall, a five-fold lead over any of his potential challengers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But among Republicans, he's the choice of 7 percent of those surveyed, while Kashkari only musters 5 percent GOP voter support.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> 31 percent of GOP voters think he's doing a good job as governor.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>A small plurality of Republican voters — 20 percent — favor \u003ca href=\"http://www.electtimdonnelly.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Tim Donnelly\u003c/a>, the Tea Party-aligned assemblyman from San Bernardino County. \u003ca href=\"http://www.andrewblount.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Andrew Blount\u003c/a>, the mayor of Laguna Beach, barely edges the governor among Republicans with 8 percent support. The vast majority of GOP voters — 58 percent — are undecided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The PPIC survey is just the latest statewide to show Donnelly, a staunch conservative who gets a warm reception from die-hard GOP audiences, as the de facto frontrunner. And yet his support remains relatively small, with some political observers arguing that Donnelly has limited appeal beyond core Republican voters. Some have started publicly saying they fear a Brown vs. Donnelly fall matchup \u003ca href=\"http://articles.latimes.com/2014/apr/09/local/la-me-republicans-california-20140410\" target=\"_blank\">could hurt the GOP's chances in other races\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet Kashkari, \u003ca href=\"http://www.news10.net/story/news/politics/john-myers/2014/03/13/neel-kashkari-looks-for-momentum-to-become-governor/6391829/\" target=\"_blank\">a former federal official who crafted the TARP effort of 2008 and a first-time candidate for office\u003c/a>, clearly has failed so far to make any noticeable inroads among likely voters. And it's not as though he's not trying: the 40-year-old Newport Beach resident has been traveling the state for more than a year, he's released relatively substantive position papers on jobs and education (the latter coming just Tuesday), and it's hard to browse a California news or political website without seeing a \"Kashkari for Governor\" ad pop up on the screen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, Brown seems to be unaffected by the increasing number of attacks being launched by either Kashkari or Donnelly; the PPIC poll finds 56 percent of likely voters think he's doing a good job as governor. That number is higher than his base support in PPIC's question about the actual primary election, but that may be because some voters don't feel the need to vote for Brown in June ... given he's assured a spot on the November ballot, and this is the first statewide June election in which all voters can vote for all candidates (\u003ca href=\"http://www.kcet.org/news/ballotbrief/election-law/californias-new-top-two-open-primaries-explained.html\" target=\"_blank\">with only the top two advancing to the fall ballot\u003c/a>).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Kashkari can gain any traction with voters, education issues could be part of his arsenal. The PPIC poll, which is largely about how Californians view K-12 and higher education, shows Brown is on thinner ice with the electorate when it comes to schools. Just 33 percent of likely voters approve of his work on public schools. And on Tuesday, Kashkari released his thoughts on schools -- which, in a nutshell, are to send tax dollars to individual schools and let them pretty much do whatever they want with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fifty percent of adults polled by PPIC say the quality of education in California schools is a big problem, and 55 percent say have the same high level of worry about the state budget's treatment of schools. The governor's signature education reform -- last year's shift of more unrestricted dollars to English learners and students from low-income families -- draws support in this poll, but just 27 percent of those surveyed actually knew of the program by name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown's support among Republicans, who may see him as the most moderate of the Democratic voices in Sacramento, is even higher when it comes to his approval numbers. 31 percent of GOP voters think he's doing a good job as governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Measuring Brown's appeal among Republicans depends, of course, on whether any given poll has a reasonably sized sample of GOP voters. Only 28 percent of California voters polled by PPIC identified themselves as Republican, with 44 percent as Democrats and 22 percent as independents. That's pretty much in line with official voter registration stats, but it might be an undersampling for the June election, where historically GOP turnout has been strong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But no one knows that a larger Republican sampling would have meant anything different ... and so, for now, these numbers raise some interesting questions. Can Kashkari, who has only about a third of the support of Donnelly, keep bashing Jerry Brown and hope to make it to the November ballot? Or does he have to start attacking the GOP frontrunner?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Can Donnelly win enough of the huge 58 percent of undecided GOP primary voters in the PPIC poll to emerge victorious?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, perhaps most fascinating ... will even more Republicans decide that, absent a better choice, they'll cast a vote on June 3 for one of the most iconic Democrats in California history?
