> There are plenty of other good reasons to vote NO on Proposition 93:

> - the leadership that is promoting Proposition 93 promised it would be
> paired with reform of California's corrupt and broken redistricting
> process, but they broke that promise
> - it has a sweetheart clause that allows even longer terms for Nzqez and
> many others
> - newspapers on the left and the right oppose Proposition 93
