Samson shorn?
I thought you folks would get a kick out this. It includes recent poll numbers for all of the propositions on the special election this year.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Samson shorn?
Sep 29th 2005 | LOS ANGELES AND OAKLAND
From The Economist print edition


The prospect of a disastrous special election—and a rival from Tinseltown

Get article background

IS THE Gubernator about to suffer political humiliation? On November 8th, California's voters will be summoned to a special election—and, if the opinion polls are right, they will rebuff most, if not all, of the ballot initiatives Arnold Schwarzenegger deems essential for his “year of reform”.

Mr Schwarzenegger launched his campaign in January as an admirably bold bid to fix California's budgeting system. This is a mess thanks to two things: spending increases mandated by the voters; and a legislative stalemate between a Democratic majority that wants to protect public programmes and a blocking Republican minority that refuses to raise taxes.

1. 75 looks like it could pass though...
From the poll numbers here, it looks like we need to do a lot more work to make sure that 74 and 75 don't pass, which still have numbers where they might.
