[Sosfbay-discuss] full list of names of 12 ballot measures

[Jim Doyle]

There are a dozen ballot measures/initiatives that have qualified for 
the November ballot
and there are 5 more going through signature verification.

The Secretary of State has two web pages that provide information on 
these measures.
http://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/elections_j.htm
http://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/vig_11042008_public_display.htm

The first is merely a list and is the source of the list presented below.
It will however get you started as to the question "What are the ballot 
measures?"

The second is a draft copy of the voter pamphlet separated in sedctions
for each ballot proposition and uses only proposition x as the haeder of 
a section.
I will send a sample of the second type in another email.

The legislative analyst's analyses for these ballot measures are at
