In the race for Senate, Fiorina has a double-digit lead in both polls over Tom Campbell and Chuck DeVore.

DeVore 16%
Fiorina's numbers look strong heading into the June 8 primary. With California the most expensive state in the country for campaigns, she benefits from high name recognition, likely due to big advertising spending.
Both polls also have Meg Whitman with a double-digit lead over her strongest primary challenger, Steve Poizner. In fact, Whitman has a nearly two-to-one lead in the race.

The Republican primary is not the only big contest June 8 in California. Voters will decide whether to take a small step toward public financing of elections with Proposition 15. That’s fitting, given the incredible level of spending so far in this election cycle. The voters will also be deciding whether to overhaul the state's election law by adopting a top-two "primary" system, which may make campaigns even more expensive.
