New poll on term limits, immigration

Today's piece of the San Jose State poll shows the term limits measure with a good-sized lead, but the numbers are clearly shaky. The measure is leading by more among Republicans and independents than among Democrats, which suggests that the opening line of the official summary saying that the proposal reduces the time a member can serve from 14 years to 12 is carrying the day. An oppo campaign that focuses on the part of the proposal that allows members to serve all 12 in one house or the other, or the part that allows some current members to serve even longer, will surely take those numbers down.
