Poll Results Assess Californians’ Responses to Racial Privacy Initiative

The California Wellness Foundation on Poll Results Assess Californians’ Responses to Racial Privacy Initiative:

California voters respond differently to arguments for and against Proposition 54, according to results of a Field Research Corporation public opinion poll commissioned by The California Wellness Foundation (TCWF). Poll questions were designed to discover the extent of voters’ knowledge about arguments for and against Proposition 54 and its effects. The poll, conducted in English and Spanish, surveyed a random sample of 629 registered voters, 448 of whom were deemed likely to vote in the October 7, 2003 recall election.

“The California Wellness Foundation is concerned about special health problems and differences in health outcomes experienced by underserved Californians,” said Gary L. Yates, TCWF president and CEO. “We were interested to learn what California voters thought about collecting racial and ethnic data, as this information is often used in public health studies.”
