But Times polling has shown the unpopularity of gay marriage and driver's licenses for illegals. A February survey found that 32% of California voters thought same-sex couples should be allowed to marry, 40% supported civil unions without marriage and 23% favored neither.
A Times poll in October found that 63% of voters supported Schwarzenegger's veto of a driver's license bill.
Voters also have spoken directly: In 2000, 61% approved an initiative declaring that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid in California. In 1994, 59% voted for an initiative to bar illegal immigrants from nonemergency public services, although much of that measure was scuttled by courts.
But the champions of these causes are undeterred.
