No on Prop 14!

By manding, on Jun 3, 2010

Prop 14 claims it's an "open primary" when it's really a “CLOSED ELECTION” because it closes o your rights as a voter.

"Proposition 14, also known as Top Two, will be decided by California voters on June 8, 2010. Proposition 14 will require all candidates for Congress, and for state office, to run on a single ballot in June. All voters would receive that ballot. Then, only the two candidates who receive the two highest vote totals would be allowed to run in the general election. To ensure that only the top two vote-getters campaign in the summer and fall – and to ensure voters don’t have a choice – the measure would ban write-in votes in November...."

 

prop14--Candidates will end up being hand-picked by insiders or committees--and you won't get a say in who your party's candidates will be.

--In districts that are politically tilted heavily in favor of one party, the general election ballot will only have a Democrat vs. a Democrat, or a Republican vs. a Republican.

--Only the best-funded candidates would make the top two, meaning no third party voices between June and November where voters are twice as likely to be engaged in the election

cycle.

--No write-in candidates would be allowed.

THE CRP RECOMMENDS "NO ON 14!"
