A proposal by Los Angeles attorney Molly Munger that The poll released Saturday found that the Democratic gov- would raise income taxes on nearly all Californians on a sliding scale has considerably less support. The Field Poll finds voters are split on that initiative, 42 percent in favor and 43 percent opposed. Both ballot initiatives are being pitched as a way to help California's struggling schools amid a $16 billion budget deficit. Brown's proposal would also backfill the state's gen- eral fund and guarantee funding to local governments for public safety.
