Results obtained for

First Public Opinion Poll on Cityhood

A telephone poll commissioned by the Santa Clarita Cityhood

Formation Committee indicates that incorporation is favored by a
better than 2 to 1 margin among those who have an opinion. A

large fraction of those polled, however, have not yet taken a
side on the issue.

The poll was conducted during the last week of January and
the first week of February among a random sample of 68 persons

who can qualify as voters in the proposed area. The poll has a
statistical margin of error of 6 percentage points.

81% of the sample indicated an awareness of the cityhood
issue. When asked how they felt about incorporation, those

questioned responded as follows:
Category Number Percentage

·strongly Approve 12 18%
Somewhat Approve 17 25%

Neutral & Don't Know - 26 38%
Somewhat Disapprove 11 16%

Strongly Disapprove 2 3%
