LOS ANGELES (AP) — A new poll shows strong support of Proposition 25 -- the Nov. 2 ballot measure that would make it easier to pass a state budget.

The Los Angeles Times/USC poll published Monday says 58 percent of likely voters support Proposition 25, which would change the two-thirds majority needed to pass a budget in the state legislature to a simple majority.

Only 28 percent oppose it and 13 percent remain undecided.
