3 in 10 Californians identify with Tea Party protests

According to a new poll (PDF) from Field Research Corp., 28% of Californians identify with the Tea Party protests "some" or "a lot." Among Republicans, that rises to 56%. Unaffiliated voters identify with it 34%. Even 11% of Democrats identify with it "some" or "a lot." The numbers among Democrats might be larger except that only 56% of Democrats "have heard" of the tea parties. An amazing 46% of Democrats are not aware of the tea parties: they must be the ones who get their news from the "mainstream media."
