That may be, but there are Mormons in California. Their participation is as legitimate as the NRA, the AARP, or any other advocacy group.

The orders came from Salt Lake City, and the percentage of California mormons is negligible compared to the amount of money raised by the LDS.

This was interference in a state election by those who resided outside the state, no matter how you excuse it.

I'll repeat my comment...I can just hear the howls if California residents interfered in Utah elections in this manner.

I donated to Marilyn Musgrave. I live in MI. I did not interfer with her state election, I supported my point of view.

Do you know how many non-California FReepers donated to the Yes on 8 campaign?

How naive!...Politics ain't softball!

I’ve no doubt they’d complain, and in my view it would simply be whining, as you note Politics ain't softball!

Getting back to the thread topic, if the LDS began running ads slandering the religious denominations who supported the other side, or disrupting their religious services, I’d suggest they’d be worthy of condemnation in the former case, prosecution in the latter.
