I intend to vote no on 4, 5, & 6.

Unfortunately, Floridians seem to have a history of voting in favor of all ballot initiatives regardless of their consequences or cost.

I hope more are paying attention this time around.

Am I correct that these amendments need a 60% majority to pass? If so, I don’t think they have a chance with an expected strong Rep turnout. I already voted NO on all 3.

A number of people I know intend to vote yes on 4, due to grudges against their county and city governments. Spite isn’t a wise basis for voting, but pissing off the voters isn’t smart either.

I knew to vote no on 4 but hadn't had a chance to research 5 & 6 yet. That was on my weekend to-do list.

THEN . . .

I received a robo-call from Julian Bond yesterday telling me to vote YES on 5 & 6.

Thanks Julian! You saved me some research time . . .

NO on 4, 5 & 6!



Still not sure why they had me on their call list . . . I am registered Republican at this time . . . They must have me on a "Black" list somewhere . . .

;-)
