SACRAMENTO-- Some undecided voters may rely on last-minute ads or polls to sway their votes.

A record eighteen-and-a-quarter million people are now registered to vote in California. Those are the final numbers released today by the Secretary of State's office. That means about three-quarters of eligible voters are registered.

Voters have a tendency to want to vote with the winners so polls can have a particular influence on last-minute undecided voters.
