I've already voted. Of all propositions, the only YES votes - 31 (State Budget), 35 (Human Trafficking, 32 (Political Contributions), and 40 (Redistricting).
YES on 31, 32 and 40 were also recommended by the State Republican Committee.
Please, don't give Brown any more money (30)
As far as education is concerned - it's time for tough love.
Yes on 32 and no on all the others.
Just slightly joking. I always do this as a sanity check, but every now and then they throw a sane recommendation into the mix - just to mess with my mind I'm sure.
In answer to your question - it's early, I won't read up on the propositions until the weekend before the vote (I'm not voting early).
Thats how I am going to vote
30 NO
34 NO
36 NO
37 NO
38 No
39 NO
My husband and I are voting the same: YES only on 31, 35, 31, and 40. The rest NO!!
Anytime the politicians give you a chance to vote on being taxed...vote NO
They will tax you without asking every chance they get.
Traditional Values Coalition is recommending no on everything except 32, 35 and 40. I am inclined to vote their way but will read through it before I vote.
I am voting no on 30 because I want to starve the children and kill their puppies. /s
“The future of California’s education system will be decided Nov. 6, when voters consider two dueling propositions that would raise taxes to support public schools.”
Typical libtard baseless premise. As if there is no future unless taxes are raised. I’ve seen the future of California’s Education system first hand. If you want your kid to be educated in California, you either a) home school, b)Choose a good private school, or c) be one of the very lucky few who live in an area with a decent charter school.
Yes on 32, 33, 35, 40
NO! on the others.

There is no saving California public education. If the public schools were given access to absolutely unlimited funds, they would continue to produce uneducated, liberal graduates or dropouts.

About Prop 34...Will people really going to vote to abolish death penalty? No on that prop...
NO on 30, No on 38, Yes on 32. No rest of them.
Folks, I want you to be very careful about Proposition 31.
IMO it is a Trojan Horse that fits nicely into U. N. models for economic zones that userp normal governmental districts where the officials are answerable to the public.
One description I read a few weeks back explained that regional boards would be set up, and the result would be that suburbs would be united with inner cities in such a manner that the tax base that used to be kept locally, would instead be disbursed to help inner cities where taxes were inadequate to fund all the Leftist crap.
One thing here that pops out immediately. It’s the change to two-year budgets. This merely takes the pressure off the Leftist legislature to do their job on time each year. We give them two years, and guess what, they’ll miss the deadline then too. Not interested...
Get started by reading this, and pay special attention to, the “Proposition 31 realigns government through a process that requires the development of Community Strategic Action Plans (CSAPs).” portion.
With more study I think Californians will recognize this for what it truly is. It’s a Leftist dream come true.
The appointed board governing the CSAPs WILL NOT stand for election. Any questions...
Vote no on 31. You’ll rue the day this piece of garbage passes.
32. Y
33. Y
35. Y
40. Y
No on everything else.

What’s the benefit of the state legislature being prevented from passing a bill involving more than $25 million without offsets?
Why it’s going to save us money right?
Do you see any verbiage in there that prevents the legislature from passing seventy-two $24.9 million dollar bills without offsets? No. You don’t.
This is snake-oil verbiage. It means nothing.

VOTE NO on 31.
It’s designed to look like it’s written by a Conservative. It isn’t.
This is a very crafty bill. Those who have donated 1/9 against the bill, are all devout Leftists. Strangely, you can find obvious massive Leftist donations supporting this bill by 9 to 1.
This is probably one of the most crafty destructive bills to face us in decades. It’s a terrible bill. Please don’t be fooled.
Still finishing the ballot here, but:
30 - HELL NO
38 - OH HELL NO
Contra Costa County Measure A - NO F’IN WAY
All of these are “for the children”, that is, more money for the teacher’s union bankrupt pension schemes. Let ‘em live within their means, or get someone who can manage money better!
32 - YES
Starve the union bastards that force certain professions to contribute under duress, then use the money however they want. Interestingly, got a call just as the Debate was ending last night from someone on the “No on 32” committee. After he stumbled hopelessly through my name, he started to ramble about why I should vote No. Asked him which union he was representing, got a nice stammer from him.
At this point, I put him out of his misery, and informed him that I’d already voted and it was YES on 32. Didn’t bother waiting for his response, wanted to get back to the baseball game.
