California Love? Apparently Not
California was voted the most hated state, according to a recent poll by Public Policy Polling.
Apparently most of America disagree with Tupac and Dr. Dre's love for California.
Despite most Fair Oaksians having a pretty high opinion of their home, it would go against a recent poll by Public Policy Polling. The Golden State ranked below all 50 states. Here’s a bit from the Huffington Post:
Only five states in the country were in the negative territory, including Utah (24 percent of people polled found the state favorable and 27 percent found it unfavorable), Mississippi (22-28), New Jersey (25-32), Illinois (19-29) and California with a whopping 44 percent of those polled viewing the state unfavorably. Only 27 percent of those polled viewed California favorably, and 29 percent had no opinion. (See all of the results here.)
