The future of California's education system will be decided Nov. 6, when voters consider two dueling propositions that would raise taxes to support public schools.

Proposition 30, backed by Gov. Jerry Brown, and Prop. 38, bankrolled by civil-rights attorney Molly Munger, each would generate billions of dollars for public education, which has been hard hit by the state's financial crisis.

My question is: How will you vote on all CA propositions?

I've already voted. Of all propositions, the only YES votes - 31 (State Budget), 35 (Human Trafficking, 32 (Political Contributions), and 40 (Redistricting).

YES on 31, 32 and 40 were also recommended by the State Republican Committee.

Please, don't give Brown any more money (30)

As far as education is concerned - it's time for tough love.

I will dutifully check the San Jose Mercury News recommendations, and vote the opposite...

Just slightly joking. I always do this as a sanity check, but every now and then they throw a sane recommendation into the mix - just to mess with my mind I'm sure.
In answer to your question - it's early, I won't read up on the propositions until the weekend before the vote (I'm not voting early).

Here's a tip:

Anytime the politicians give you a chance to vote on being taxed...vote NO

They will tax you without asking every chance they get.

Traditional Values Coalition is recommending no on everything except 32, 35 and 40. I am inclined to vote their way but will read through it before I vote.

Was #38 a less emphatic No?

“The future of California’s education system will be decided Nov. 6, when voters consider two dueling propositions that would raise taxes to support public schools.”

Typical libtard baseless premise. As if there is no future unless taxes are raised. I’ve seen the future of California’s Education system first hand. If you want your kid to be educated in California, you either a) home school, b)Choose a good private school, or c) be one of the very lucky few who live in an area with a decent charter school.

Let's just say that my votes will have a common theme:
Schools should be privatized, so I will vote against any measure that continues to toss good money at this beached whale of a Public School system; California is over taxed - no to any new tax measures ...

There is no saving California public education. If the public schools were given access to absolutely unlimited funds, they would continue to produce uneducated, liberal graduates or dropouts.
