Answer 1

83: Yes, although I STILL feel a little torn voting yes, because there are some forseeable problems with this prop, especially the fact that it affects ALL "sex offenders" including people who are caught peeing on the side of the road...those type of mild instances where people have "technically" committed a sex crime makes this prop unfair, but I think the good it will do outweighs the negatives. I hate molesters, rapists, abusers, etc. so I will vote yes.

84: YES...clean water??? Hell yes!

85: NO NO NO! I am most passionate about this prop. I'm disappointed to see people voting yes. By voting yes on this you endanger the small majority of girls who cannot tell their parents because of an abusive home life. Physical and sexual abuse do occur in homes, and if a girl gets pregnant and doesn't want to tell her parents about the abortion she has GOOD reason for it, usually to protect herself. Studies show over 60% of girls already tell one or both parents. If you have good communication and a loving relationship with your child you shouldn't have to vote yes on this to ensure they tell you. Also, this prop is just a small step that the pro-life side is taking towards getting abortion outlawed alltogether. It is a slippery slope! Please vote no. :(

86: Yes, I think the money used from the cigarette tax will go to really good things.

87: Yes. Save our planet!

88: No, many schools don't even qualify for the money they claim will be designated to them. Its a never-ending property tax...yikes.

89: Yes.

90: No, it sounds good in theory, but there's a lot of problems with this particular prop.

Happy voting!

83 yes
84 no
85 yes
86 no
87 no
88 no
89 no

84 NO already passed monies before, never used
85 NO this is between patient and doctor

87 YES global warming is here
88 NO use the bond monies already passed
89 NO All other props have failed to stop the corruption

Hope this helps you decide. Agree or not, please vote!!!

Answer 4

Proposition 83—Sex Offenders and Sexually violent Predators Punishment: Vote YES (Prohibits sex offenders from living near schools and parks. Requires global positioning system monitoring of sex offenders. Supported by the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. Opposed by child molesters, rapists, and the ACLU)

Proposition 84—Water Quality, Safety and Supply Bond: Neutral (While improving water quality and safety is important, the bond measure means more government spending. This measure is supported by the environmental groups and the Democratic Party and is opposed by tax payer associations and the Republican Party)

Proposition 85—Parental Notification Before Termination of Minor’s Pregnancy: Vote YES (Any surgical procedure performed on a minor child requires not only the notification but the consent of a parent or guardian. Prop 85 requires 48-hour parental notification before a minor can terminate a pregnancy. Exemptions can be granted by a judge. This law makes sense. Supported by the Republican Party and parents who care for the safety of their children.)

Proposition 86—Tax on Cigarettes: Vote YES (Probably the most important initiative in this election. Prop 86 will raise the tax on cigarettes by $2.60/pack. Numerous economic studies in peer-reviewed journals have documented that every 10% increase in the price of cigarettes will reduce overall cigarette consumption by 5%, reduce the number of young-adult smokers by about 3.5%, and reduce the number of kids who smoke by about 6-7%. Proposition 86 will prevent more than 700,000 kids from becoming smokers, save 300,000 lives from smoking related deaths and will save nearly $16.5 billion in healthcare costs. The tobacco companies are spending $60,000,000 to defeat this proposition. They claim that only 10% of the money raised will go toward helping smokers quit. The fact is that the raise in cigarettes taxes is the most effective way to help smokers quit. Don’t listen to the tobacco companies’ lies. Vote YES on Proposition 86. Prop 86 is sponsored by the American Cancer Society, American Lung Association, American Heart Association, California Heart Association, The Children’s Partnership, and American College of Emergency Physicians. Supported by the Democratic Party, the League of Women Voters, and many other groups.)

Proposition 87—Tax on California Oil Producers, Alternative Energy Funding: Vote NO (While the idea of reducing our need on oil is good, the proposition is misguided. It will tax California oil producers. That means more oil will be imported rather than produced in CA. This will lead to higher prices which can be passed on to consumers. Furthermore, the $4 billion raised from this measure does not guarantee any results. Democrats (except for Clinton and Gore) are against it, Republicans are against it. Environmentalists are for it.)

Proposition 88—Education Funding: Vote NO (A new statewide property tax which is opposed by the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, the tax payer associations, California Federation of Teachers, League of Women Voters and many other organizations.)

Proposition 89—Corporate Tax Increase for Public Funding of Political Campaigns: Vote NO (Opposed by the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, taxpayer groups, small and large businesses and non-profit organizations)

Proposition 90—Government Acquisition of Private Property: Vote NO (It has to deal with eminent domain. Opposed by the Democratic Party, the environmental groups, and city councils.)
