The part that was most surprising to me was this:
No one came out in opposition? Not even the bureau of prisons, or the warden's union‽‽ And it still didn't pass?
Edit: I, and all my housemates claim to have, voted for this proposition, and actually all the propositions I had on my ballot in IB to pass. It's truly disheartening to see that all the other props that mattered less than this one passed, and this one that literally seems to have no downsides is potentially failing.
For reference, the downsides of almost every single other proposition on the IB ballot would increase various taxes, and all of them passed. WTELF you stupid NIMBYS‽‽‽
Nobody wants to admit they support slavery but clearly >50% do
This is the only reason that I would support the absolutely horrendous idea of ensuring that everyone's vote was public record, and I would still vote against that erosion of our rights.
