Assemblyman Jerry Hill released the results of a poll he has taken on some state budget issues.  I seem to recall the survey being solicited off of his e-mail list which isn't really a representative sample (no pun intended), but nonetheless here are some results:

Should the deficit be solved using only cuts to state programs?
Yes 31.3%
No 68.7%

Should the deficit be solved using a combination of cuts to state programs and other solutions such as borrowing, fees and taxes?
Yes 65.4%
No 34.6%

Should corrections and our state prison system be the main priority area for reductions in state spending during this deficit?
Yes 54.7%
No 45.3%

Should we reduce funding to K-12 education and community college, CSU and UC funding in this year's budget?
Yes 23.4%
No 76.6%

Should the main focus of the budget be job creation and economic development?
Yes 67.8%
No 32.2%

Should state programs like environmental regulation and health services take a back seat to education funding and economic development in this year's budget?
Yes 49.2%
No 50.8%

I disagree with Jerry about removing the 2/3 vote requirement to pass a budget.  It's there for a reason and in a state with so many "safe" seats I think it is one lever we have to get representatives to negotiate.
