Ballot measures will likely resurface

Supporters of Proposition 75 said they began looking at new proposals to restrict unions' ability to use dues for political purposes as soon as Election Day ended.

Proposition 75 was the second recent attempt to restrict union political contributions. The previous one, Proposition 226, applied to both public and private unions and was similarly rejected by voters.

Legislative leaders from both parties agreed last week that they also need to keep pushing forward with the issue raised by Proposition 77 - taking the responsibility for drawing district lines out of the hands of the Legislature.

Among the proposals they are expected to examine is a constitutional amendment, SCA 3, authored earlier this year by Sen. Alan Lowenthal, D-Long Beach. That measure, which was set aside during the special-election campaign, would create a seven-member citizens commission to draw boundary lines starting in 2010. Proposition 77, by contrast, would have created a panel of three retired judges to draw the lines, which would have taken effect immediately.

Meanwhile, supporters of drug-discount measure Proposition 79 are also planning to continue looking for ways to lower the cost of medicine in California - though they acknowledge a future ballot measure may not be the best approach because they were outspent 80-1 by the pharmaceutical industry.

1. So what they are actually saying is:

"Fuck you America"

If you stop and think about it..........that's exactly what these right-wing nazis are saying when they seek to thwart the will of the people. Clearly an example showing that the right-wing don't give a fuck about democracy.
