I’m curious how much press prop 50 got outside of California. With all the phone calls/texts, mailers, TV ads, people plastering freeway overpasses with signs about it, folks waving signs on street corners, it did feel like midterms.
I’m glad it’s done. I hope it passes. 90 minutes till they start counting votes…
By far the two largest races for my local election were nyc mayor and prop 50: all the press, all the publicity, all the talk …. And my ballot held city councillors and school board candidates who were mostly unopposed.
It’s actually unexpected: my town has had some contentious issues lately on school funding, higher density housing , bike lanes, pedestrianizing a section of our “main” street, and a war between a strong mayor and ineffective city council …. I expected to attract more candidates, more voters

I know you know this by now, but it passed by a good margin.
