The Pro side needs to get off their asses and counter all the anti-ads at least one for one. If they don't fight, the proposition will fail. I don't watch or listen to media that has ads any more, so I don't know what's happening out there.

i've been told by county dem party board people and a representative from CADEM that they just don't have the money to counter the anti-ads. Charlie Munger Jr. is throwing millions of dollars at this. he was mega rich, and now with his daddy's inheritance, he is probably uber rich. there's just no way to compete with that.

we are canvassing heavily for Yes on Prop 50 though. there is a new canvassing app that was being developed for the midterms, but they pushed it out there now as a sort of trial run because it is supposed to get more people engaged and make it easier to canvass. i used it when i canvassed on Saturday, it was not bad. the person organizing that particular day of canvassing said that it was the biggest turnout for canvassing volunteers she's ever seen. we are going to do more next weekend. there are canvassing events all around the county being posted to Mobilize. hopefully it makes a difference. the app only has us go to registered dem voters, and there were some who said they are already planning on voting yes on 50, but also quite a few who said they hadn't heard of it or weren't sure about it, and we talked to them and gave them a flyer about it.
