Out of the Loop Except for Facebook

Yes I have read the pamphlet on the sides of the state Propositions. There are many this time as the causes and the so called causes of special interest groups made their way to the November ballot. I was particularly interested in finding out what the teachers and other progressive groups felt regarding the propositions vetted. (I love that new word in our vocabulary). It is a very new word that is meant to mean prepared for, checked out and qualified for our support.

The progressive groups with the most defined positions are the Democratic Party and the CA Labor Federation.  All of the groups seem to share the same positions. Some of the groups did not indicate positions on many of the propositions but consistently they were for prop 30 and against prop 32.

Here is the rundown on each:

• 30 Yes
• 31 No
• 32 No
• 33 No
• 34 Yes
• 35 Yes
• 36 Yes
• 37 Yes
• 38 No
• 39 Yes
• 40 Yes

As always read the particulars in the voting pamphlet.

Don't forget to vote.
We are set up for absentee so our vote will be in.
