props fail? What were the issues there? It's only the props not the Gov. position, right? His props are all anti-working people and unions, right?

How does it look? Anyone been watching it tonight? I am in Texas but I sure would love to see Arnold fail.

3. 3 of his 4 props are in the NO column now, and the other one is dropping.

4. Only 75 still standing
It's a law against union dues being used "involuntarily" for political purposes. I thought their ads were better on this one. Otherwise, the whole slate is falling flat, including to progressive measures (79 and 80). I take the whole result as a protest against the special election itself, more than policy-driven...

10. You're right on about that. Not one of these props had to be done
in a special election that is costing this state millions in the tax payer's money, and both sides have spent about 200 million each on campaigning. That's just plain stupid, even for Arnold. Most people I talked to said I'm voting no across the board without even knowing what they were about. I follow these things kinda close and I was totally confused on a couple. I just wish someone would explain these issues in layman's terms so we would all know what the Hell we're voting on. I voted according to what the Dems suggested, and the only 2 props they were for went down harder than the rest.

6. Bad night for Arnie
Only 31% of the vote in so far and many liberal precincts have yet to be counted.

11. the BEST part, the very BEST part....

It is popcorn time for CA.
