November Ballot - Propositions
I did a series of posts over at Lone Star Times on the constitutional amendments. It was a lot of fun and informative, reading about them, comparing the various commentaries for and against and coming to my own conclusions. Have to do that again someday, although I must admit it took up a bit of time. Hey, it’s a hobby, what can I say?

BJ, This would get lost in the shuffle at LST… I really appreciate your research on the various propositions, and admire that you can state your opinion while still objectively presenting opposing ones.
You get an official Hat Tip from Bob…
Don Pardo, tell him what he’s won!
