So after some spirited discussion over the 11 State ballot initiatives on the November 2012 ballot, I came up with the following results. You should know that while a consensus was reached on most of the initiatives, there were some where at least one person strayed. A strategy we used on some of the more confusing props, was "When in doubt, Vote it out!" So, here it is:
Proposition 30 - Temporary Taxes to Fund Education/Public Safety (Consensus - NO)
Proposition 31 - State and Local Government Budget initiative (Consensus - NO)
Proposition 32 - Union dues/payroll deductions for Political Contributions (Consensus - YES)
Proposition 33 - Auto insurance/driver history (Split - YES)
Proposition 34 - Death Penalty Initiative (Split - NO)
Proposition 35 - Human Trafficking/Sex Offenders (Split - YES)
Propostion 36 - Three Strikes Law (Split - NO)
Proposition 37 - Genetically Modified Food Labeling (Consensus - NO)
Proposition 38 - Income Tax Increase for early childhood ed. programs (Consensus - NO)
Proposition 39 - Income Tax increase for Business pertaining to Clean Energy (Consensus - NO)
Proposition 40 - Redistricting State Senate Districts (Consensus - YES)
