There's also this oft-cited excerpt from Westbrook v. Mihaly 2 Cal. 3d 756.
"constitutional rights may not be infringed simply because the majority of the people choose that they be"
Unfortunately, while I can find plenty of people making reference to the quote, I can find no details on the actual case and whether it might apply to this one.
