As the article also said, TURNOUT will be the key, the deciding factor.
And the Dems just created another "grassroots organization":
"A new grassroots organization called the Courage Campaign hopes a new TV ad will get Democrats to the polls.
It is designed to link Schwarzenegger with President George W. Bush."
This must be what MoveOn.org created. See my next post for link.
I think a real all out propaganda effort to defeat the props. is going on here. The important thing is to ignore them and VOTE!
A spinoff group from the liberal political advocacy organization Moveon.org is seeking to link Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s special election initiatives with President Bush and a national Republican agenda.
Its television commercial was scheduled to begin airing Tuesday on CNN in major media markets.
Rick Jacobs, who ran the California campaign for former Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean in 2004, and Wes Boyd, co-founder of Moveon.org, said they have raised about $75,000 to fund the campaign.
The ad tries to persuade voters that Schwarzenegger’s “year of reform” agenda is rooted in longtime policy goals of the Bush administration and the Republican Party.
they could all pass but remember, that nasty 9th circuit!
The big news is that the Stanford poll shows a conservative drift:
Prop 73 (parental consent on abortion): was 54-46, is now 58-42.
Prop 74 (teacher tenure reforms): was 50-50, is now 53-57.
Prop 75 (union dues restrictions): was 70-30, now slipping but still a very strong 64-36.
Prop 76 (budget reform): was a dreadful 30-70; now merely a dark horse 45-55.
Prop 77 (REDISTRICTING): was merely 50-50; now 55-45.
But the liberal initiatives are failing.
The insurance bailout schemes are down to 51-49 and 50-50.
Who to trust? Well, Stanford's poll was sorta middle ground between an unbelievably conservative Survey USA poll, and an unbelievably liberal PPIC poll. But it should be noted that while Hoover has a conservative outlook relative most of academia, PPIC is funded by moonbats; The James Irvine Foundation was expressly and admittedly founded to "give voice" in the media (i.e., sycophants) to the "oppressed" (i.e., liberals), including specifically to oppose the sort of reforms in Arnold's props.
It's amazign the liberal media will give them an ear, since they admit their agenda (albeit with Orwellian language) is to project bias into the media's reporting.
PPIC even quit polling on the data they couldn't twist.
Their results:
Prop 74: 46% yes to 49 no.
Prop 75: 46-47
Prop 76: 32-63
Prop 77: 50-38
