How I'm voting, State Propositions - Nov 2024

[Jeff Hobson]

Dear fellow voters,
Here's the third of my summary emails with links to my blog posts about how I'm voting in the November election. This one covers the state propositions.  

Here's the super-brief summary (as usual, boldface indicates the races I feel most strongly about - mostly 'cuz my side is trailing in polls, so I'm particularly invested in getting you to vote like I do!). For details, read the full post:

State Propositions:

2: YES for Bonds for Public Schools + Community Colleges
3: YES to Preserve Marriage Equality
4:YES for Natural Resources and Climate Change Bonds
5: YES YES YES to Allow Local Bonds for Affordable Housing and Public Infrastructure with 55% Voter Approval
6: YES to Prohibit Involuntary Servitude
32: YES to Raise Minimum Wage to $18 by 2026
33: YES to Expand Cities’ Control of Rent Increases for Vacant Units
34: NO to Protect Non-Profit’s Abilities to Engage in Politics
35: NO NO NO to Too-Complicated Ballot-Box Budgeting that will Worsen CA’s Deficit
36: NO NO NO, don’t Reinstate Three Strikes and the War on Drugs

I previously sent out my recommendations on Berkeley Ballot Measures, Berkeley Elected Officials, and Federal-State-County-District Elected Officials. 

For those of you who'd like all of this in one printout, I'll make that too and send it out with a single summary post that'll put all my recommendations together. 

As usual, please feel free to forward this to people you think would be interested, encourage people to visit the blog and sign up for this email list (see the footer below). 

If you have feedback, please comment on the blog -- I answer blog comments before I answer individual emails. As usual, all views in this email and on the blog are entirely my own and are not those of my workplace or any organization I'm involved in.

Thanks for your interest,
Jeff
