California November ballot: 17 propositions stacked
Voter ID, health care compensation limits, CEQA reform, permanent millionaire tax, billionaire wealth tax, housing bonds, campaign finance reform, recall election changes, and a dozen more crammed into one election.
This is what happens when initiatives get weaponized. Progressive and conservative groups both dumping their wish lists into one ballot cycle. Californians are getting a civics exam, not a choice. Some of these directly contradict each other. Others will tank under their own complexity once people actually read them.
The real story: whoever controls the money wins the messaging war on these. Expect billions in ads explaining why you should care about rainy day fund thresholds.
