The majority of California voters — 63% — want Sen. Dianne Feinstein to resign before the end of her term because of her failing physical and mental health, according to a new poll.
In the Emerson College/Inside California Politics poll that was released Monday, 37% of voters in the Golden State wanted Ms. Feinstein to serve the rest of her term.
Older voters were more likely than younger voters to say Ms. Feinstein should resign, with 68% of voters who are over 50 saying she should, though a majority of 58% of voters who are under age 50 said the same. Ms. Feinstein’s monthslong absence from the Senate earlier this year while suffering from shingles created a stalemate for several of President Biden’s judicial nominees who lacked bipartisan support for confirmation. Ms. Feinstein’s vote will be crucial for Senate Democrats’ one-seat majority in the months ahead during spending negotiations with House Republicans.
Her office did not respond to a request for comment. She has consistently rebuffed calls for her to resign.
