When it comes to Californians' favorite manifestation of power -- horsepower, in the form of an internal combustion engine mounted on four wheels -- residents want the government to pressure auto makers to make cleaner cars. Majorities of voters across political lines and regions surveyed by the PPIC supported tougher air pollution standards on vehicles. Even 56 percent of Republicans were willing to see tougher standards on new cars, trucks and SUVs -- and even if it drove up the purchase price. Whites (83 percent) and blacks (70 percent) were most likely to support such policies; smaller majorities of Latinos (63 percent) and Asians (62 percent) agreed."
