7. An Enthusiastic YES on Prop 50

While repukes continue to try to gerrymander red states in order to maintain control of the House in next years scheduled election Gavin Newsome is asking Californians to temporary allow redistricting to counteract these actions.

If California rejects prop 50 I think the country is looking at 2 more years of repuke control and the shit that is happening today will only get worse.

But its the voters who put us in this position in the first place and they are the ones i blame the most and the ones who need to feel the pain of what they voted for. This is a chance for them to correct their course and avoid crashing and sinking in to the abyss. There is a lot of money being poured into defeating prop 50 and, while it is a no-brainer for me, I am not sure that voters understand that.

God help us if they don't take this chance to change course.
