ITS VOTING DAY (for Georgia at least, early voting)
CHECK UR BALLOTS YAAAALLL
https://ballotpedia.org/Georgia_2016_ballot_measures
My take on the 4 statewide ballot measures:
State intervention in this case means the governor appointing a person who can go around the elected school superintendent. This sounds pretty bad because making an appointed official able to go around the decisions of an elected official doesn't bode well for accountability. Also, our governor is a fucking idiot
I recommend voting against this amendment
More penalties for those charged with sexual exploitation of children. I can't find any arguments against this measure. I recommend voting for this amendment.
One of the sponsors of this bill was previously investigated by this commission for making sexual comments to a female attorney. He wants to replace the commission. I recommend voting against this amendment
Seems fine in principle, and I can't really find anything bad about this one. I recommend voting for this amendment.
That's exactly how I voted.
Also, if you're in Georgia, your county might have SPLOST proposals for 1% sales tax increase.
