SACRAMENTO-- Voters are narrowly divided over Proposition 34, an initiative to abolish the death penalty in California. That's according to the latest UC Berkeley/field poll survey. Results show 42-percent of likely voters intend to vote "yes" to repeal the death penalty and 45-percent plan to vote "no" to keep the law in place.
California currently has over 700 inmates on death row- the highest number in the nation.
However no California inmate has been put to death in the last 5 years because of an ongoing legal battle over execution procedures. The delay between the time someone is given a death penalty sentence and when an execution actually takes place averages more than 25 years.
Proponents of repealing the death penalty argue that the way the sentence is imposed in california is a waste of money.
The official analysis by the state's Legislative Analyst and Director of Finance says Prop 34 could provide state and local government savings in the high tens of millions of dollars each year.
