vote yes on 53. This is the Democratic platform.

The Democrats are against prop 53, which was written by a conservative and is supported by McClintock and Schwarzenegger. The Freeper vote should be yes on prop 53 as it locks the socialist out of raiding the road and bridge building funds. It does not raise taxes, only forces the socialists to spend the money on hard assets rather than soft Democrat breeding programs.

I oppose Proposition 53 for the same reason I opposed Proposition 98--because constitutional amendments make lousy fiscal management tools.

The Democrats do indeed support prop 53 and Bustamante has TV commercials supporting it. The proposition require that 3% of the annual state budget be spent on infrastrucure/transportation. 3% - no more, no less. It is a fiscal straight jacket.

Uh NO, Assemblyman Richman (author of Prop. 53) is by no means a conservative. In fact, he's the most liberal Republican officeholder in the state.
