Happy Halloween! On the day of trick-or-treating, let’s talk about the ballot questions that are trying to trick you.
Question 3’s backers say that their top-two primary question is about promoting competition, openness, and accountability, but in reality, top-two systems harm grassroots and working-class candidates, empower corporate special interest money, and just create a more expensive version of the status quo. More here on Question 3 and why you should VOTE NO.
Question 5’s backers say that their revenue limit campaign is about “affordability,” but in reality, imposing a stricter revenue cap on the state would make it harder for the state to invest in health care, housing, education, and child care and address what’s at the root cause of the high cost of living. More here on Question 5 and why you should VOTE NO.
Question 8’s backers can often sound as though they are trying to protect our cannabis laws, but in reality, these fraudsters are trying to bring back the drug war and drain vital revenue from the state and municipalities. More here on Question 8 and why you should VOTE NO.
