THE SPECIAL ELECTION / CALIFORNIANS SAY NO TO SCHWARZENEGGER / STATE MEASURES: Governor reaches out, doesn't concede

San Francisco Chronicle

November 9, 2005

California voters were rejecting Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's special election agenda Tuesday, handing the governor a humbling loss after he gambled on a high-stakes plan to reshape state government.

With more than three-quarters of the votes counted, the four initiatives that Schwarzenegger said were needed to reform California were all losing. The centerpiece of the governor's agenda, Proposition 76, which would limit state spending, was trailing badly.

When California voters go to the polls November 8 for the state's special election, they will be confronted with a series of right-wing measures.

The majority of the eight initiatives on the ballot are aimed at further eroding the living standards and democratic [democratic-republic] rights of working people. None of the initiatives that voters will be asked to decide on express the concerns and needs of ordinary people in California.

Election Eve: Whiff of Election Fraud in Air; Poll Watchers Needed

SF Bay Area Indymedia

November 7, 2005

Nazi Schwarzenegger is predicting an "upset victory" for his fascist initiatives, Props 73 through 78.

Considering he is very unpopular, and his initiatives are either clearly losing or at the 50% disappearing edge, this can only mean that his thugs will be committing election fraud, just as his mentor, Pres Bush did, in 2000 and 2004.

Censored! Project Censored presents the 10 biggest stories the mainstream media ignored over the past year

Uruknet (Iraq)

November 6, 2005

Just four days before the 2004 presidential election, a prestigious British medical journal published the results of a rigorous study by Dr. Les Roberts, a widely respected researcher.

Roberts concluded that close to 100,000 people had died in the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Most were noncombatant civilians. Many were children. But that news didn't make the front pages of the major newspapers. It wasn't on the network news. That's just one of the big stories the mainstream news media ignored, blacked out, or underreported over the past year.

Amish get politically active to defend wood shops

Ekklesia (UK)

November 5, 2005

Some Amish citizens in rural Geauga County, located near Cleveland, USA, have taken the unusual step of entering politics in local elections, even though their faith normally means that they avoid direct engagement with outside society and modern life.

At issue is a zoning restriction which prevents home-based businesses greater than 1,000-square feet (92.9 square metres) in size. Arguing that Huntsburg Township's zoning laws are preventing them from opening woodworking shops on their farms at a time when agriculture is losing its profitability, some Amish are campaigning to end all zoning restrictions in the settlement in the US state of Ohio by taking part in an 8 November 2005 local election.

Statutory rape issue goes to polls

World Net Daily (CA)

November 3, 2005

Abortion-rights activists are fiercely opposing a measure put before Californians next week on whether parents should be notified before a minor has an abortion.

A backer of the measure, Yes on 73, argues for its passage by pointing to a well-documented survey by Texas-based Life Dynamics revealing virtually all Planned Parenthood affiliates fail to report clear cases of statutory rape to authorities. Proposition 73, dubbed "The Parents' Right to Know and Child Protection Initiative," would amend the state constitution to require physicians to notify a parent or guardian 48 hours before performing an abortion on a minor.
