Voting in the Special Election
by Rob Means

Many of us don't have the time or expertise to fully understand the
wording and implications of the various propositions on the November 8
ballot.  My solution is to consult sources I trust to help me decide.
When two source I trust disagree, then I read their argument to see
which is more persuasive given my own life experiences.  Here are
recommendations from various organizations:

                Dem.     Green    Rep.    Post
Prop. 73:    NO        NO      YES     NO
Prop. 74:    NO        NO      YES     YES
Prop. 75:    NO        NO      YES     YES
Prop. 76:    NO        NO      YES     YES
Prop. 77:    NO         ?        YES     
Prop. 78:    NO        NO      YES
Prop. 79:    YES      YES     NO
Prop. 80:    YES        ?        NO
