I know where there are two “no” votes. We need more heads on a stick to shame these worthless politicians into performing as promised.

I’ve lived in CA for many years.For the first time, I can’t get a “feel” for what the public is thinking.
Of course, thinking and feeling might be a problem in itself here in Kali........fornia.
It is a toss up re who will vote for what.
It seems to me that people are quite stressed out and just might not vote at all, either way.
The ads and newspapers are intense and relentless re what will happen if the measures lose.

All Right ! Empty those Union Coffers and piggy banks.

Votes are free.....Politicians are Expensive, but every Union should OWN several.

Ron Nehring, the head of the California GOP, gave $600K to Arnold’s “Dream Team” to support 1A!! He needs to be thrown out of the GOP and barred from any official position for life.

I’ll vote for that!

These losing initiatives and special elections are sucking all the money out of people — money that could go to normal elections where we *might* be able to get some decent folks elected. As long as Arnold controls the party, that won’t be possible. (Although I don’t think it will be possible if it is controlled by Whitman, Poizner, or Campbell, either). We are so screwed!
