the other other propositions

Prop 77: Redistricting
This law would create a panel of 3 retired judges to draw district maps instead of the current system where state legislators do it.
On the surface this looks like a great idea, but there is at least one catch that I don't like. The judges would be picked by the legislators and there would be less accountability to popular vote. However, if you look at some of the district maps, something is broken. For example, there is a rule that says all districts must be contiguous, meaning all in one chunk. The 46th is basically two chunks literally joined by a stretch of beach, thus avoiding the high minority population of Long Beach. The joke is that the 46th is only contiguous at low tide. Another point is that none of the state seats or U.S. House seats switched parties in the last two elections. NONE!! And, almost none of the elections were considered competitive (less than 60% to the winner). In short, is this THE solution? Probably not. Is it better than what we have now? I say:
MY VOTE: YES

Props 78 and 79: Prescription Drug Discounts
Both of these propose discount prescription drug programs.
You may ask yourself: Why are there two programs that seem to do the same thing? Simple answer: The drug companies want 78 because they will get more dough. 79 includes a "best price" requirement for companies to participate. No offense to drug companies, but I don't trust you assholes. Wait, forget the no offense part. I hope you greedy bastards are offended.
MY VOTE: NO on 78, YES on 79

PROP 80: Electricity re-regulation
Would increase regulation on some electricity providers.
This was a tough one to get through since it sounds so good. However, once I looked into it more I realized that its kind of a sham. You see, most of us go through an Investor Owned Utilities (IOUs) like SC Edison or San Diego G&E, which are already under pretty good regulation as far as price(no, seriously). So this would not really change things for you too much. However, it does permanently cut off new "direct access" accounts that are usually large business and schools as well as people looking for alternative sources of energy (like solar). So although the law talks about making a stronger push for "green" energy, it really prevents it in a way. At least that's my take on the issue.
MY VOTE: NO
