As House Democrats move forward in their effort to remove President Trump from office, a new poll finds California voters deeply split along party lines, with a majority supporting impeachment. That’s a relatively small group, however, only about 1 in 8 California voters, since most self-identified independents lean toward one party or the other. “The net effect of two weeks of televised impeachment hearings appears only to have dug California voters in deeper to their earlier held partisan positions about the president. The poll findings “really shows the solidification of party lines when it comes to Trump,” said Berkeley political science professor Eric Schickler. Now, roughly three-quarters of California voters have a view of him, putting him in the same league statewide as Sens.
