Very helpful ballot initiatives in key states
The Collins Report ^ | Oct. 17, 2008 | Kevin “Coach” Collins

There are a number of ballot initiatives in important states that will bring conservatives to the polls.

In Florida voters will decide a Gay “marriage” initiative. As is always the case at this point in a cycle, the measure is ahead 55/34. We know the “Bradley” factor shows itself in elections involving Black candidates. Evidence shows there is also a “lavender” factor in voting on Gay “marriage” questions.

In 2004 all such measures failed by percentages ranging from 58% up to 85%.

Pre- election polls showed all these measures would pass.

In Pennsylvania voters will be asked to approve a measure to allow the state to add 4 Billion dollars to its debt for water and sewer projects. Given recent economic events, this should bring conservatives to the polls

In already economically distressed Ohio, voters will be asked to approve another Democrat spending spree. This time it amounts to 2 billion dollars of new debt to fund environmental projects. Voters will also be given an opportunity to protect individual property rights against state rules mandating how private property can be used. These Ohio measures will bring out conservatives and help Republican candidates at every level.

Michigan: A proposal to expand the use of human embryonic stem cells will bring out pro-life conservatives to stop its passage. Proposal 08-2 would use human embryonic stem cells instead of adult stem cells which will reduce the need for future abortions. This will provide a rallying point for Pro life voters to work under and give conservatives another reason to go to the polls and vote conservatively as they do.

In Missouri, Constitutional Amendment 2 will give voters the chance to make English the official language of the state. This will bring conservatives to the polls and help conservative candidates from top to bottom.

I believe our base is getting fired up and ready to vote McCain/Palin. These measures will serve as an extra reminder of what is at stake should Obama win.
