The Water Cooler – Did You Vote “Yes” Or “No” On Prop.1?
previous post
NO
N O !
I voted No. I see more voted yes. Makes me wonder what percentage of those people pay income taxes, or how many just figure this will be paid by the “millionaires and billionaires,” you know, the ones all leaving this state. The state has anywhere from a $38 to $74 billion deficit, and now were going to spend over $6 billion for 10,000 “behavioral health (read that as drug addict)” beds. That is only $600,000 a bed. I guess it makes sense, we’re going to spend over $2.6 billion annually to ensure all the illegals breaking into our state (more like invited in by biden) get healthcare too. It’s only (our taxpayer) money.
I voted NO and California will soon be my “former state” also…
I voted no!
NO!!!!!
Voted No.
A big Negatory here
Yes. Newsom needs some credit for solving homelessness, addiction, mental health crisis.
Newsom should get credit for what? I think he has lied so many times his nose should be a mile long.

“Just a few months after Gavin Newsom was sworn in as mayor of San Francisco in 2004, he announced a plan to get all of the city’s chronically homeless residents off the streets within 10 years.”

Still waiting . . . . . . .
Sarcasm?
Ol Greasy Gavin hasn’t solved anything. Gavin deserves credit for raising taxes, being soft on crime, favoring illegals over CA tax paying citizens, breaking covid rules he imposed on Californian’s, driving business and jobs out of this state, etc. etc. etc.

PAUL,

What “credit” would you like to give Governor Gavin Newsom “for solving homelessness, addiction, [and the] mental health crisis” and how exactly was he able to “[solve] homelessness, addiction, [and the] mental health crisis?”
Of course you did … not surprised
Paul must be hoping for some help for his mental state. Maybe chill out rent free. The perfect democrat.
I think He and Harris also get credit for Prop 47… That is a rel benefit to the Citizens..
Does this Proposition fall under the taxpayer protection act 2024?
No. They’ve proven to be irresponsible with our money.
No. Newsom should have taken mental health into consideration when the state had a $100 billion surplus, instead of squandering it all away on illegal invaders. Prop 1 is a feel good proposition, but it will force people into treatment, and when they leave, they will be back on the streets, still mentally ill, still drug addicted, and still homeless. Prop 1 will cost taxpayers over $10 billion after interest.
No. There were some really good reasons to vote against it in the voting booklet they sent out so it sounded like some special interests wanted it passed to line their pockets.
Everyone I spoke with also voted No, so lets see this projected outcome at the end ? is the fix in again ?
They will find enough votes they need to pass the bill, they always do. I’m sure there is a van parked somewhere that is full of yes votes.
The people of California voted on daylight savings time many years ago and Greasy and his gang sent the big FU to the voters. The only votes they like are the ones that they decide are correct. So if you vote Yes or No it doesn’t seem to make a difference.
ANTONIUS,

Proposition 7 from 2018 was nothing but a waste of time and money. Federal law doesn’t allow states to be on Daylight Saving Time (DST) year round, Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) for California. Federal law does, however, allow states to be on Standard Time year round, Pacific Standard Time (PST) for California.
And such changes can cause a mess. Mexico stopped observing DST last year. The transition did cause some mess, however DST makes no sense in the tropics because the sun doesn’t change that much in latitude during the year unlike places far north like Alaska where it changes a lot. When I moved from Washington to California I noticed that dusk in summer came earlier here than in Washington.
In 2016, the California electorate voted against Proposition 62 which would have abolished the death penalty, and voted in favor of Proposition 66 which streamlined the appeal process in order for executions to move forward. In 2019, Newsom signed an executive order establishing a moratorium on executions. Who is the threat to democracy again?
I voted NO, I hope it fails, currently it’s a tie at 50% no vs 50% yes.
Newsom is merely attempting another money grab under the guise of supposedly spending six billion of taxpayer money yet again to help the homeless and mentally challenged. The money will not be spent on what it’s earmarked for. Look at the billions he has already spent which hasn’t improved any of the conditions of the state in the past. It’s the same old bait and switch folks…
Most of us here voted no, and likely have never met anyone who voted yes. However it’s likely to pass.
How curious.
The uniformed (who probably didn’t even look at the voting guide) probably figured if it was proposed it must be good.
It’s a secret ballot, so I won’t say how I voted, but adding more debt to the state when Greasy Gavin announced a large budget deficit seems foolish.
NO!!! The fact that the text for Proposition 1 was just short of 70 pages long should’ve told everyone why it needed to be defeated. The margin of votes has fallen to 12,474 votes today, 50.2% – 48.8%.
I voted no.
I don’t recall voting yes for any proposition in CA.
No. I have zero confidence in the California government. I think they are dishonest and immoral; especially the pompous, self serving and pandering Newscum.
I voted No. Too many issues with it.
The pos fake governor needs to go!
Larry Elder won the recall also.
Cheat cheat cheat. That’s all the dems know how to do. They know they’d lose otherwise!
GN God’s sever judgement is coming down on you!
NO. The state of Calif would be responsible to pay off the bonds at a cost to the tax payers. We can’t afford it! Think it was something like $6 billion or more. Already over taxed.
Stop the bleeding.
Yes!! Great paying JOBS!
I have no idea what it is, what it’s for or who wants it and it feels great! Should have done this years ago. Ignorance truly is bliss. Or close enough anyway.
Interesting that voters have to vote for money for veteran’s mental health but not for medical and legal $ spent on illegals. I’d like to see Mewson’s ad asking voters to approve it.
Voted no🙂
Anything ties the Newsom should be an automatic NO!! Easy way for him to funnel money to his friends
Of course I did. I like how fiscally irresponsible politicians spend er, give away, my hard-earned tax dollars. What’s another $1B?
No. Keep all spending decisions local. Moving funds from the counties to the state is moving the money and the decisions in the wrong direction.
Unfortunately, it looks as if Proposition 1 is going to pass, as the margin of votes continues to widen as more votes are counted each day, after two days of a narrowing vote count.

YES – 50.3% – 49.7% – NO
