Election Polls 2006: California Governor
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) has a six-point lead over Phil Angelides (D) 47% to 41% in the latest Rasmussen Reports election poll (see crosstabs). The Governor leads by 18-points among men but trails by six among women.

A poll earlier this month showed the race to be a toss-up. Earlier Rasmussen Reports polls of this race have ranged from a toss-up to a 13 point lead for the Governor in April. The current results are comfortably in the middle of that range.
