What the heck is he saying there? Maybe McClintock hasn’t had a chance to actually read all these propositions.

Apparently McClintock can read and understands the difference between supporting a proposed budget, or an increase in an existing tax, or a newly proposed tax. He also apparently recognizes that administrative fees are simply taxes.

You're probably right about what he means. I'm not sure I'd be for a system that requires only 51% for spending, but 67% for paying for it. That sounds a bit flakey to me.

I think we ought to just go one way or the other - 50% or 2/3.

McClintock may not like marijuana, but he sounds like he must be on something hallucinogenic. Is he saying that he supports a simple majority vote for the budget as long as there is also a simple majority for tax hikes?? It sure reads like that to me. And that's insane.
