But a mid-September poll by the Public Policy Institute of California found one in three voters still undecided on Proposition 11. Just 38 percent of likely voters supported it, with 33 percent opposed.

But even some longtime redistricting supporters oppose the November initiative, such as political activist Ted Costa, the lead author of Proposition 77, the failed 2005 initiative that would have placed a panel of three retired judges in charge of drawing the districts.

He said loopholes in Proposition 11 would allow the Legislature to change the commission’s makeup and that powerful interest groups such as public employee unions could exploit the open application process to recruit ringers to serve on it.

A couple of friends of the Wasp family in Lodi were emailing us last night asking our tendencies on the ballot measures. Then we compared and found they went for this dumb move (prop 11) after they agreed with us on all the others except the (prop 2) poor little animals being brutalized by the vicious, cruel FARMERS & RANCHERS!!!

Ads with pictures can lead so many people to vote for costly props that are just exercises in futility!!!

The whole ballot measure process has been completely bastardized to the max!!!

PLEASE PEOPLE... IF IN ANY DOUBT, VOTE NO!!!
