In the heat of the cooling off of primary season (start practicing saying President Obama!! Woot woot!!), it might be easy to miss tomorrow's local vote, but don't it's a very important one and the forces of darkness and greed are counting on you being distracted to slip their plan through. The vote on 2 propositions is extremely important and will affect your life and the lives of others. Please take the time to go to your voting poll, it only takes a few short but vital minutes. Here's how it goes as I understand the situation. Props 98 (dangerous) and 99 (legit) deal with real estate, rental taxation and increase rates, the viability of rent control, environmental responsibility for developers and protection against enforcement of creepy imminent domain laws.
NO = 98
YES=99
Thank you very much.
We are the people.
We have the power.
Proposition 98, on the June 3, 2008 ballot, would strip renters of the most basic protections they have against unfair landlords. Please help defeat Prop. 98 by voting No on 98, Yes on 99 on June 3 (that's today! Tuesday! Work it out!). Click HERE to find your polling place.
Wealthy landlords have spent millions to push their deceptive measure. They want voters to believe 98 is about eminent domain. But, hidden in the fine print of Prop. 98 are provisions that would enable landlords to hike rents with no limitation, unfairly evict tenants and withhold security deposits.

Proposition 99, also on the same ballot, would prevent government from taking a home to give to a private developer. Real reform, with no hidden agendas. Thank you for your time! xoSND
