You do not have enough information to tell if a majority of people want it that way. Some of these zoning restrictions (don't know specifically about CA but true elsewhere) were put into place 60 years ago, when a majority wanted it that way (often for very racists and class warfare reasons), and they made it a requirement to have a supermajority to change it, not simple majority. Thus, a majority could want to change, but are unable to reach the 2/3rds or whatever supermajority threshold is required. Don't all political questions in the US boil down to democracy issues?
