CA Prop 30 just might pass!

[RandySF]

Public support for Gov. Jerry Brown's initiative to raise taxes remains below 50 percent, but the measure no longer appears to be on a downward trajectory, leaving Brown within striking distance one week before Election Day, according to a new Field Poll.

Likely voters favor the initiative 48 percent to 38 percent, with 14 percent undecided, according to the poll.

Voters surveyed late last week and early this week were marginally more likely to favor the initiative than those surveyed in previous days. Of voters who have already cast ballots, 54 percent voted for the initiative, the poll found.

"If there was some reason to believe that this thing was sinking, you should have seen it over the course of the two weeks we were interviewing," poll director Mark DiCamillo said. "It seems to be treading water. ... All they need are two or three percentage points, and there's certainly a sufficient number of undecideds from which to get that."

1. It's hard to say no to Jerry. He's so damn sincere.

I think it passes.

3. To a fault.

I was walking up Powell St. by the cable car turnaround here in SF when I saw Jerry and his guard coming from the opposite direction. And as we passed I heard him say "this place is a dump".

6. No contest

Every wealthy Californian effected by it donated to Brown's campaign. Whitman was financed by Whitman, and out-of-state phantoms. It'll cost him no political capitol, and, as per usual, all initiatives are decided the day of the election, when most voters open their ballots and read them for the first time. That was the sad story with Prop 8 four years ago (at least we beat that back with a big rubber..err..stick) but if I know my neighbors, this ones in the bag. The ads have been a great help as well. Brown got out in front of it, sat in a classroom on a desk, it couldn't have been more hokey if he had been tossing an apple up in the air and then recited the pledge of allegiance, but it worked. Let's just hope Assassin's Creed 3 doesn't hold down the youth vote.

days knocked off.

8. Yes to 30! In Jerry I trust. One of the true best serving people of all time

he actually serves like a person serving the people was suppose to be like his entire life

not in it for any other reason than to serve the public and better the life of everyone

remember the bygone days when jerry ran his campaign for President with the 1-800 number,
which predated how the internet would become decade later. by the people, for the people.

In Jerry I trust.

May this be voted yes on.
