California might be forcing slavery reparations on a state electorate that does not want it, the latest Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll revealed Sunday. While California is a deep-blue state, slavery reparations are opposed by a 2-to-1 margin overall, including by all racial demographics except Blacks, the LA Times, which co-sponsored the poll, reported. Just 28% of California voters support cash reparations for slavery, while a large majority of 59% are opposed, including 44% strongly. "The idea of cash reparations is really what's being strongly opposed," DiCamillo added to the Times. The breakdown by race:Black: 76% favor, including 51% strongly.
