Greetings close-minded idealogues! What a fabulous day this is! Proposition 23 was not just defeated, it was destroyed.
The big, evil, dirty, Texas oil companies are on the run. I guess they even got word that all it took to turn a California voter against Proposition 23 was to tell them that the Prop was funded by BIG-EVIL-DIRTY Texas oil:
By the end of September, grassroots activists had successfully turned voters against the measure by branding the Yes on 23 campaign as being bought and paid for by the Texas oil companies, which prompted the oil companies to go on the defensive and freeze all funding to the campaign.
I participated in several calling parties that helped to turn the tide (quite massively, I might add) against Proposition 23. It was a great feeling telling voters about who was really behind Proposition 23 and using the oil company donations against them.
We can now all look forward to a cleaner, greener California with gobs of green energy jobs for all. You’re Welcome.
