California voters

I've mostly figured out how I'm voting on Tuesday, but I'm still undecided on Props. 1A, 61, and 63. Anyone want to argue me into a position on those?

Kind of curious how you are on the Native American casino issue. That one amuses me, like Californians have any control over what the tribes do. They are soverign nations and only the federal government has control over them. Basically the whole thing is about them coming to a settlement with the state of California so the state will stop trying to interfere with what they do by sueing them in the federal courts.

Well, it's more about brokering deals with them than trying to control them. The way those propositions are set up, though, I'm not keen on.

thing is, there's really no hard core reasons for the tribes to broker those deals other than to get the states off their backs and be good neighbors....
