1. The GOP has 17 state constitutional amendments that most are already covered by state law to keep Democrats from ...

... changing them when we take over again. We vote NO on all of them. The Problem is that with no candidates or offices on the ballots most Democrats won't get out to vote and the light attendance to the early voting tells me me most voters were GOP and this shit will pass.

The world is run by people who show up. The Democrats need to start showing up. Plenty of important things happen in office year elections. How often do we have to FA and FO before it sinks in?

4. We've got a school bond

issue.

They want to build a new cafeteria in the elementary school and two new gyms.

Still a little disappointed that they won't do a performance space for theater and band, but moving forward on this makes me think that maybe they won't consolidate our school right away.

Because I live in a state that wants people to vote and believes in democracy.

California.

Prop 50 is an issue. Voting boundaries are proposed for change. Does not effect my county but effect who votes for our representative.

Have only had vote by mail and no polling station where I live for 20 years or so. Once liked to go and vote but like the convenience of mail in voting.

8. Local city thing to raise hotel tax

To fix up downtown, its actually non partisan and both sides are for it since tourists pay the tax.

9. Yes, but it's all city offices, which I can't vote for as I live in the county. This happens often.

It's the only time I'm not out to vote. Haven't otherwise missed elections since Reagan v Mondale. And wasn't that a disappointing election. As usual, the Dem got sh*t on, and no one really tried to counter it. Not that I really liked Mondale, but he was much better than Reagan.

That was also the election where I schooled my then-husband about how I was going to vote and he had no say in the matter. We still had those huge booths with the curtain and the levers. Had to wait hours to get our turn.

12. Local elections and a state wide prop are what is on ballots in NYS.

I voted early, and fortunately for me it will be a sweep for the D’s in my suburb outside of Albany. Some of the races had no R candidate. They have a hard time fielding candidates in my town. 😃

13. Prop 50 in California
Sun Nov 2, 2025, 12:31 PM

The temporary redistricting amendment to the state Constitution. One additional thing I like about this amendment is that it calls on Congress to pass legislation to authorize an amendment to the U.S. Constitution requiring all states to use an independent redistricting commission for federal offices. This will only affect Congressional districts.

I've already voted YES on 50 the day after I received my mail-in ballot.
