How can they possibly fine you for the napkins. Tell Sacto to send the napkins inspector because that lady asked for the napkins you don't know what she's talking about.

Obviously still early but statewide and LA county/city stuff is looking pretty good. It looks like the ballot prop that allows us to fire sheriffs is going to pass, and it looks like it will apply to somebody besides Villanueva who's getting his rear end kicked by a slightly less fascist prick. Results here

https://www.politico.com/2022-election/results/california/ballot-measures/ All the ballot props have been called:  I take special glee in 26 and 27 eating colossal poo poo, last I checked ballotpedia something like a combined $300M was set on fire by the Yes campaigns for both combined. Kinda surprised 30 failed, wonder if Newsom really does have that much pull with voters or it was just plain ol' new tax aversion (even though it was only going to affect ~40K ultra rich filers). Overall much better than the wasteland that was the 2020 prop results. Sorry to any menthol enjoyers, go buy in bulk while you still have the chance I guess.

California really hates tobacco, weren't we the first to ban smoking in restaurants? I just remember one day going out to restaurants as a kid and suddenly places stopped smelling like poo poo

“More oversight is needed” is a long way off from “this particular ballot initiative is the right regulation.” My mother in law was a dialysis nurse and she thinks this proposal is crap.

I think a big part of the push back on the dialysis prop is there is no real need for an actual doctor to be present when a high schooler can perform dialysis. Hell a dialysis patient can perform dialysis. I didn’t really care about 26 or 27 but I’m surprised they got crushed. 31 passing is dumb.

Was 26 the sports betting but on reservations thing? I'm kind of shocked at the audacity of that even being on the ballot lol. The tribes didn't actually need the states permission in the first place to build casinos, and now that they already have them there's absolutely nothing stopping them lol. The whole thing is basically a gentleman's agreement to play nice with eachother.

I'd be a lot happier just giving tax money to tribes rather than having them build casinos. Casinos are loving depressing places.

The only surprise to me is Prop 30, but I never saw any lobbying on it either way. I've already seen Republicans attacking California for not passing sports betting. Culture wars!

DeadlyMuffin posted:Why? It requires a doctor or nurse practitioner to be present at all dialysis clinics, which is totally unnecessary and expensive, which would probably result in less access to care. It's opposed by every major newspaper I've seen as well as many medical associations. Why do you think it's a good idea? And why do you think it's best done as a ballot initiative instead of the normal legislative process?

I'm actually shocked the gambling ones got shot down so hard, wow. I don't really give 2 shits what games casinos offer because I don't normally go, but craps are cool. And I voted no on dialysis for 2 reasons: A) there's no reason a doctor has to be present, and B) I'm loving sick of seeing dialysis props on the ballot every election. e: I really hope Kevin loving Kiley doesn't win, good grief. He's 9k ahead with 44% counted, blech.

My belief is the gambling props died because of the relentless bad ads during baseball. Prop 27: hi we are a poor Indian tribe, prop 27 will help us and the homeless. Please ignore my kids who look like they don't want to be in the ad. Me: ok Prop 27: hi we are a poor Indian tribe that doesn't get gambling bucks, prop 27 will fix that and help the homeless. Me: wait what's this about gambling? Prop 27: drat don't you wish you could bet on sports like your friends in other states? Gambling roxxxx! Me: what happened to the reservation and homeless? Prop 27: prop 26 is backed by evil big business tribal gaming interests! gently caress them, vote for 27 so we can have some gambling money too! Prop 26: hi there, uh, do you want nebulous more gambling that we won't explain? Me, as the Giants fail to make the playoffs: time to cancle Google TV, thanks for consuming literal days of my life showing me endless gambling prop ads, gently caress those guys, gently caress everyone involved.

Anonymous gambling on any sports event at any time anywhere is just going to cause a bunch of people to lose money and some douchebag tech person who really likes sports will make a lot of money and spend it all on sports memorabilia for their office. Replacing bookies with legally authorized tech giants is a horrible idea. jokes fucked around with this message at 19:12 on Nov 9, 2022 |

I think it was less about allowing it on reservations and more about it only being legal on reservations, as a way to drive tourism and revenue to their casinos. Zachack posted:My belief is the gambling props died because of the relentless bad ads I honestly think it was this, way too much money was spent oversaturating every commercial block to find with ads for the two props to the point that people got pissed and voted "No" out of spite. That it was two competing props certainly didn't help either. Can't wait to see what the idiots come back with in two years for the next inevitable gambling prop.

Mahan got shoveled ridiculous quantities of money by Liccardo's PAC and San Jose realtor associations and they used it to put up signage everywhere and bombard people with mailers. If Cindy loses it's because she coasted on endorsements instead of spending on upping her visibility to compete with Mahan, who seriously it cannot be stated enough had signage everywhere. That said Mahan's lead is extremely small right now and we're apparently taking loving forever to count: 91% of precincts are reporting but only half the actual ballots have been counted.

It looks like Doan is winning over Esparza in D7, so it looks like control may swing back to the business faction 6-5. Then again, literally every single council member on both sides endorsed Chavez so who knows how well they’ll work together…

Muir posted:It requires a doctor or nurse practitioner to be present at all dialysis clinics, which is totally unnecessary and expensive, which would probably result in less access to care. You're saying it's unnecessary, but not why it's unnecessary. I asked you why your mom the dialysis nurse thought it was a bad idea and you told me what some newspapers think. Expense and "It would probably result in less access" is an argument against every single form of oversight or regulation. It carries absolutely zero weight without actual numbers behind it. Here's why I thought it sounded like it was necessary. It's an anecdote, but I trust the nurse. Definitely more than I trust a "major newspaper".
