Prop 32 (minimum-wage boost) rejected In California

LA Times-

Californians, who have historically supported efforts to raise the minimum wage, were not swayed this time around.

After two weeks of postelection uncertainty, Proposition 32, the initiative to increase the state’s minimum wage to $18 an hour, was defeated by a narrow margin.

The rejection was “a pretty poignant sign of the times in a state like California,” said John Kabateck, state director of the National Federation of Independent Business, which had urged voters to vote no. “It is certainly sending a message that Californians across the political spectrum are fed up with higher costs and greater uncertainty on Main Street.”

Proposition 32 was declared defeated after falling just short, with 49.2% voting “yes.” The Associated Press called the race on Tuesday evening. more

  1. About ten years ago Californians decided it would be a stellar idea to tax the rich a additional 15% because they were rich. Two years later they repealed it. Turns out they were all Business owners and left California. Taking there jobs with them. No shit dumb asses. The cheat wasn’t in on this bill because Newsom Inc thought it would pass easily. I have a lot more to add but if DJT institutes voter integrity laws this state goes red during the midterms.

  2. People just grab onto words and make them sound scary. Hasn’t there generally been a flu pandemic just about every year throughout history? Sure, some are worse than others, but they still happen. If anything, measures to control them probably make things worse.

    Another word is “existential.” All it really means is that it exists. But the way it use used would make someone thing that it is synonymous with “Damocles Sword.”

  3. “Nancy Pelosi’s daughter posts bizarre video saying she was in California district to ‘CURE ballots’”

    I’ve read the too. These communists give no thought to the ramifications of disenfranchising OUR votes. They should be shot on sight. California, to this date, still is harvesting ballots to cheat the libtard candidates in. We demand justice.
