She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R.

Welcome to Prop Fest. For the next few weeks. Our teams at The Bay and Bay Curious are bringing you breakdowns of each statewide ballot proposition on the California ballot this year, all to help you vote with confidence this November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:00:38] Unlike most other states, California doesn’t have a permanent funding source for school repairs, things like broken air conditioners or a leaky roof.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Olivia Allen-Price:\u003c/strong> [00:00:49] Instead, that money comes from state or local bonds passed by voters year to year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:00:55] And that means if your school needs repairs, the money isn’t always guaranteed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Olivia Allen-Price:\u003c/strong> [00:01:01] But this year, California voters have a chance to raise money with Prop 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:01:06] In our very first episode of Prop Fest, we’re going to break down everything you need to know about Proposition 2. The school bond measure. That’s coming up right after the break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:01:23] Today we’re talking about Proposition 2. Here’s how it will read on your ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Voiceover:\u003c/strong> [00:01:29] Prop 2 authorizes $10 billion in general obligation bonds for repair, upgrade and construction of facilities at K-through-12 public schools, including charter schools, community colleges and career technical education programs, including for improvement of health and safety conditions and classroom upgrades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:01:51] To understand how this proposition got on the ballot, we hit up KQED’s early childhood education reporter Daisy Nguyen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:01:59] Thousands of school buildings across California are in poor shape and the state’s school repair fund is almost empty. There was a study by the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California that found 38% of students from kindergarten to 12th grade go to schools that don’t meet the minimum facility standards. You may have heard of the recent controversy at Oakland Unified School District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Newscaster:\u003c/strong> [00:02:31] Oakland School District plans to install more water dispensing stations at campuses after discovering high levels of lead and some water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:02:39] A routine sampling of water across the school district found that multiple school sites had elevated levels of lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Newscaster:\u003c/strong> [00:02:47] At last night’s Oakland school board meeting, parents were angry and concerned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:02:52] That led to schools having to shut off some of their water fountains and replacing water sources with bottles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:03:05] And you’re talking about a range of problems with facilities and buildings at California’s schools. How do schools normally pay for repairs like these?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:03:18] So unlike many other states, California doesn’t pay for school repairs through a permanent funding stream. The money comes from state and local bonds. Traditionally, the state would match half of a school district’s new construction project and 60% of its renovation projects. And there would be up to local districts to raise funds, usually through a local bond. What winds up happening is that it creates some inequities because wealthier districts can raise more money for repairs through local bonds because their local property values are higher, which means they end up generating more money from local property taxes. Smaller and lower income districts struggle to raise enough bond money to pay for the school repairs. Sometimes they can’t even pass a local bond at all, so they end up relying on state bond money for repairs and maybe not meeting all of their needs. The money from the last successful school bond was passed in 2016, and that’s been spent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:04:28] What does Prop. 2 do exactly?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:04:32] Prop 2 proposes to raise $10 billion to help fix or improve educational facilities in public schools, including charter schools and community colleges. It proposes to increase the state’s share of the project costs by as much as 5%. And also the state would generally pay a higher share of the costs in those lower resourced school districts, the one with the lower property values. Prop 2 also proposes to provide additional funding to school districts that want to build or renovate transitional kindergarten facilities. As you may know, this study is in the middle of expanding this new grade level for four year olds. But a lot of schools say they don’t have enough classrooms that meet the state standards for TK. Four year old students need to have bathrooms nearby and enough outdoor play area and indoor space to move around because they are going to be the youngest students entering the school system. And Prop 2 would also allow up to $115 million in renovation funds to be used for reducing lead levels in water at public school sites. So directly helping a school district like OUSD resolve its issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:06:00] And Daisy, how did Prop 2 get on the ballot and who’s putting it forward?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:06:05] The governor and lawmakers put it on the ballot. They’re saying the money is badly needed to fix the state’s many aging facilities to ensure a safer environment for learning. They say with increasing threats from flooding, heat waves and wildfires, schools really need things like air filters, air conditioners and shade structures to make the schools more climate resilient. And it’s being supported by some major groups like teachers unions, builders, as well as the Association of California School Administrators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daryl Camp:\u003c/strong> [00:06:42] Even though we passed our local bond, there’s still a need for more dollars so we can accelerate our progress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:06:49] Dr. Daryl Camp is superintendent of the San Lorenzo Unified School District. It’s a small district in the East Bay between San Leandro, Hayward and Castro Valley. He’s also the incoming president of the Association of California School Administrators. Dr. Daryl Camp talked about some kind of unsexy projects, as he calls it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daryl Camp:\u003c/strong> [00:07:12] Things like the roof. You know, no one realizes something’s wrong with the roof until it rains. Our youngest building is 60 years old. We have some buildings that are, you know, been around for three quarters of a century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:07:24] And he also wants to bring in some HVAC systems, meaning heating and ventilation and air conditioning. In his school district, they have some pretty hot days where they’ve had to either cancel class in the middle of the day or not have it at all because it was just too warm to be in the classroom for students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daryl Camp: [\u003c/strong>00:07:46] And just anecdotally, you know, I was in the public schools in Alameda County growing up. We didn’t need air conditioning. When you go into our classrooms now, if we can combine another local bond with the state dollars, we have a greater likelihood that we’ll be able to have all of our classrooms with air conditioning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:08:04] And what about the other side? Who’s against this?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:08:08] The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, which is a very prominent taxpayers group in California, are opposed to Prop 2. They say taxpayers will have to pay back that $10 billion bond, plus another $8 billion in interest over the next 35 or so years. They say it’s just irresponsible to borrow money, billions of dollars, to pay for more school buildings when enrollment in the state’s K-12 and community college system is declining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Susan Shelley:\u003c/strong> [00:08:40] If you keep doing this, you are stealing from the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:08:44] Susan Shelley is vice president of communications for the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Susan Shelley:\u003c/strong> [00:08:50] Every future budget has to pay these bond payments with interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:08:56] She said that local taxpayers will also have to shoulder a bigger burden through those local bond measures that school districts will have to raise in order to match the state’s state funds. And she says in general that it’s just irresponsible to borrow for projects that could have been paid for if the state had better manage its finances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Susan Shelley:\u003c/strong> [00:09:19] We know the school buildings are aging. Is that news? Where have they been with all the prior spending? Why did they not address these problems? The government of California should be prioritizing according to the real needs of the people of California. And if they’re not, they should be held accountable and not rewarded with more money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:09:44] Who’s spending on both sides of this ballot measure. Daisy, what do we know about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:09:51] No one is spending money on the no side, but the side that’s spending money to campaign for a yes vote on Prop 2 includes the California Building Industry Association, the Coalition for Adequate School Housing and the School Administrators Association that I mentioned and a couple of other groups. As of now, the yes side has raised $3.6 million. Back in 2020, the school bond was to raise $15 billion. That did not pass. And this time, the governor and lawmakers are hoping voters could stomach a $10 billion bond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:10:38] Daisy, thank you so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:10:40] Thank you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:10:47] According to polling from the Public Policy Institute of California, 54% of likely voters say they would vote yes on Prop 2, with 44% saying they would vote no. In a nutshell, a vote yes on Prop 2 gives the state permission to borrow $10 billion to build new or renovate existing public school and community college facilities. A vote no means you do not want the state to borrow $10 billion to renovate school facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:11:22] And that is it for our very first episode of Prop Fest. How are we doing? How we feeling? Feeling smarter, Ready to vote? Well, there’s plenty more where that came from. From now until October 4th, the Bay and Bay curious teams here at KQED are going to be dropping breakdowns of each and every one of the statewide propositions on the ballot this year to leave you feeling ready to vote this November. So stay locked in and make sure you’re subscribed to the bay so you don’t miss out on the next ones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Olivia Allen-Price:\u003c/strong> [00:11:55] Prop Fest is a collaboration between the Bay and Bay Curious podcasts.

The school bond measure. That’s coming up right after the break.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:01:23] Today we’re talking about Proposition 2. Here’s how it will read on your ballot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Voiceover:\u003c/strong> [00:01:29] Prop 2 authorizes $10 billion in general obligation bonds for repair, upgrade and construction of facilities at K-through-12 public schools, including charter schools, community colleges and career technical education programs, including for improvement of health and safety conditions and classroom upgrades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:01:51] To understand how this proposition got on the ballot, we hit up KQED’s early childhood education reporter Daisy Nguyen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:01:59] Thousands of school buildings across California are in poor shape and the state’s school repair fund is almost empty. There was a study by the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California that found 38% of students from kindergarten to 12th grade go to schools that don’t meet the minimum facility standards. You may have heard of the recent controversy at Oakland Unified School District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Newscaster:\u003c/strong> [00:02:31] Oakland School District plans to install more water dispensing stations at campuses after discovering high levels of lead and some water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:02:39] A routine sampling of water across the school district found that multiple school sites had elevated levels of lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Newscaster:\u003c/strong> [00:02:47] At last night’s Oakland school board meeting, parents were angry and concerned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:02:52] That led to schools having to shut off some of their water fountains and replacing water sources with bottles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:03:05] And you’re talking about a range of problems with facilities and buildings at California’s schools. How do schools normally pay for repairs like these?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:03:18] So unlike many other states, California doesn’t pay for school repairs through a permanent funding stream. The money comes from state and local bonds. Traditionally, the state would match half of a school district’s new construction project and 60% of its renovation projects. And there would be up to local districts to raise funds, usually through a local bond. What winds up happening is that it creates some inequities because wealthier districts can raise more money for repairs through local bonds because their local property values are higher, which means they end up generating more money from local property taxes. Smaller and lower income districts struggle to raise enough bond money to pay for the school repairs. Sometimes they can’t even pass a local bond at all, so they end up relying on state bond money for repairs and maybe not meeting all of their needs. The money from the last successful school bond was passed in 2016, and that’s been spent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:04:28] What does Prop. 2 do exactly?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:04:32] Prop 2 proposes to raise $10 billion to help fix or improve educational facilities in public schools, including charter schools and community colleges. It proposes to increase the state’s share of the project costs by as much as 5%. And also the state would generally pay a higher share of the costs in those lower resourced school districts, the one with the lower property values. Prop 2 also proposes to provide additional funding to school districts that want to build or renovate transitional kindergarten facilities. As you may know, this study is in the middle of expanding this new grade level for four year olds. But a lot of schools say they don’t have enough classrooms that meet the state standards for TK. Four year old students need to have bathrooms nearby and enough outdoor play area and indoor space to move around because they are going to be the youngest students entering the school system. And Prop 2 would also allow up to $115 million in renovation funds to be used for reducing lead levels in water at public school sites. So directly helping a school district like OUSD resolve its issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:06:00] And Daisy, how did Prop 2 get on the ballot and who’s putting it forward?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:06:05] The governor and lawmakers put it on the ballot. They’re saying the money is badly needed to fix the state’s many aging facilities to ensure a safer environment for learning. They say with increasing threats from flooding, heat waves and wildfires, schools really need things like air filters, air conditioners and shade structures to make the schools more climate resilient. And it’s being supported by some major groups like teachers unions, builders, as well as the Association of California School Administrators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daryl Camp:\u003c/strong> [00:06:42] Even though we passed our local bond, there’s still a need for more dollars so we can accelerate our progress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:06:49] Dr. Daryl Camp is superintendent of the San Lorenzo Unified School District. It’s a small district in the East Bay between San Leandro, Hayward and Castro Valley. He’s also the incoming president of the Association of California School Administrators. Dr. Daryl Camp talked about some kind of unsexy projects, as he calls it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daryl Camp:\u003c/strong> [00:07:12] Things like the roof. You know, no one realizes something’s wrong with the roof until it rains. Our youngest building is 60 years old. We have some buildings that are, you know, been around for three quarters of a century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:07:24] And he also wants to bring in some HVAC systems, meaning heating and ventilation and air conditioning. In his school district, they have some pretty hot days where they’ve had to either cancel class in the middle of the day or not have it at all because it was just too warm to be in the classroom for students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daryl Camp: [\u003c/strong>00:07:46] And just anecdotally, you know, I was in the public schools in Alameda County growing up. We didn’t need air conditioning. When you go into our classrooms now, if we can combine another local bond with the state dollars, we have a greater likelihood that we’ll be able to have all of our classrooms with air conditioning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:08:04] And what about the other side? Who’s against this?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:08:08] The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, which is a very prominent taxpayers group in California, are opposed to Prop 2. They say taxpayers will have to pay back that $10 billion bond, plus another $8 billion in interest over the next 35 or so years. They say it’s just irresponsible to borrow money, billions of dollars, to pay for more school buildings when enrollment in the state’s K-12 and community college system is declining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Susan Shelley:\u003c/strong> [00:08:40] If you keep doing this, you are stealing from the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:08:44] Susan Shelley is vice president of communications for the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Susan Shelley:\u003c/strong> [00:08:50] Every future budget has to pay these bond payments with interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:08:56] She said that local taxpayers will also have to shoulder a bigger burden through those local bond measures that school districts will have to raise in order to match the state’s state funds. And she says in general that it’s just irresponsible to borrow for projects that could have been paid for if the state had better manage its finances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Susan Shelley:\u003c/strong> [00:09:19] We know the school buildings are aging. Is that news? Where have they been with all the prior spending? Why did they not address these problems? The government of California should be prioritizing according to the real needs of the people of California. And if they’re not, they should be held accountable and not rewarded with more money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:09:44] Who’s spending on both sides of this ballot measure. Daisy, what do we know about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:09:51] No one is spending money on the no side, but the side that’s spending money to campaign for a yes vote on Prop 2 includes the California Building Industry Association, the Coalition for Adequate School Housing and the School Administrators Association that I mentioned and a couple of other groups. As of now, the yes side has raised $3.6 million. Back in 2020, the school bond was to raise $15 billion. That did not pass. And this time, the governor and lawmakers are hoping voters could stomach a $10 billion bond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:10:38] Daisy, thank you so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Daisy Nguyen:\u003c/strong> [00:10:40] Thank you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:10:47] According to polling from the Public Policy Institute of California, 54% of likely voters say they would vote yes on Prop 2, with 44% saying they would vote no. In a nutshell, a vote yes on Prop 2 gives the state permission to borrow $10 billion to build new or renovate existing public school and community college facilities. A vote no means you do not want the state to borrow $10 billion to renovate school facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra:\u003c/strong> [00:11:22] And that is it for our very first episode of Prop Fest.

Voters also approved Proposition 2, a separate measure that will allow the state to use a past tax on millionaires to fund housing for the mentally ill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 was placed on the ballot by the state Legislature. It will let the state sell $4 billion in bonds to finance the construction and renovation of affordable multifamily housing projects; housing construction near public transportation; down payment assistance for low- and moderate-income homebuyers; housing construction for farmworkers; and home loan assistance to veterans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 2 will let the state use existing funds to issue bonds that will pay for housing homeless, mentally ill Californians. The money to pay for those bonds will come from Proposition 63, an income tax on people who make more than $1 million a year, which voters approved in 2004.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 63 provides funding for county mental health services, but lawmakers decided in 2016 that $140 million a year of the money should be spent on stabilizing mentally ill people by housing them. But they decided to go back to voters with Proposition 2 after a lawsuit delayed their ability to immediately use the Proposition 63 funds for housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is, without question, a pivotal moment for mental health care in California,” Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg said in a statement about the passage of Proposition 2. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“By leveraging just a small percentage of existing mental health funding, we will be able to build enough supportive housing over the course of this program to get tens of thousands of people who are homeless and living with serious mental illness off the streets and into recovery.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11675163\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A homeless encampment located on Florida St in the Mission District of San Francisco on Thursday, June 23, 2016.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11675163\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A homeless encampment located on Florida Street in the Mission District of San Francisco on Thursday, June 23, 2016. \u003ccite>(Brittany Hosea-Small/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>California has some of the highest housing costs in the U.S., largely driven by a lack of construction. According to the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office, an average California home costs 2½ times the national average, and rent is about 50 percent higher than in the rest of the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The programs paid for by Proposition 1, the housing bond, could help as many as 55,000 families, according to the LAO. Supporters say that Proposition 2 will help build 20,000 permanent supportive housing units, where residents could also connect with mental health and substance abuse services, medical care, education and job training, and case managers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 was supported by the state Democratic Party and nearly all of the state’s Democratic representatives, as well as local governments, labor groups and hundreds of community organizations. There was no official opposition campaign. Proposition 2 had even wider support, from many of the same groups and the state Democratic and Republican parties as well as police groups and many mental health associations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, in Contra Costa County, opposed Proposition 2, saying it will take money away from mental illness treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawmakers voted in 2017 to put Proposition 1 on the ballot as part of a broader legislative package aimed at increasing housing production in California and lowering housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If you want to learn more about what’s on your California ballot, check out KQED’s \u003ca href=\"http://kqed.org/elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2018 Voter Guide\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We’ll also be hosting a series of Facebook Live Q&As.\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/331161234107297/\">Prop 6, Gas Tax – 12 p.m., Oct. 10 \u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/146244569661530/\">Prop 5, Property Tax Transfer – 12 p.m., Oct. 17\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/1889420071352971/\">Prop 10, Rent Control – 12 p.m., Oct. 24\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below is a lightly edited transcript of our episode on Proposition 5, which would give homeowners over 55, and a few others, the ability to take their low property tax rates with them to a new house. It is essentially an extension of Proposition 13, which was put into place 40 years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>OLIVIA ALLEN-PRICE: I’m Olivia Allen-Price, and we’re on day three of Bay Curious Prop Week. Today, we’re digging in on Proposition 5.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SCOTT SHAFER: Proposition 5 would basically expand Prop 13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Prop 13 passed 40 years ago and gives property owners low, low property tax rates with only tiny increases. And now with the state — and especially the Bay Area — in the middle of a housing crisis, voters are being asked to double down on Prop 13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Problem is, it doesn’t really increase the housing stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Today, Erika Aguilar and the team at “The Bay” podcast will dig into the pros and cons of Prop 5. Stick around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: So let’s start at the beginning. First of all tell me your name and a little bit about yourself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KENNETH WILKINS: Oh god.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Kenneth Wilkins is a longtime resident of North Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Scott Shafer is senior editor of the California Politics and Government Desk at KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Just spell your name for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: Kenneth. K-E-N-N-E-T-H.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: He’s been there… He was born basically in the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: And so you moved here, you said ’86?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: 1976.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It’s a beautiful neighborhood. It’s very quiet… tree-lined streets, mostly single-family homes, a few larger apartment buildings. There’s a lot of construction going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: It seems like everyone who purchased a house, they are refurbishing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: He was walking me down the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: This house was the Dickson’s here. And they were here when I came in 1976. And this one here, Mr. Armstrong — he helped us with some plumbing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: So he’s been on the block for 40 some years. How much was that house when he first bought it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Well, it was very funny. He pointed to a car, his car that was parked in front of the house. And he said…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: Actually it cost less than this car.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Is that right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: This car cost $21,000 I think. And it was less than that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It was like a Toyota. But it wasn’t a Tesla. It was like a beat up Toyota.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Wow. So that’s just representative of what the housing market looked like back then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It’s not something he could find in the cushions of his couch. He had to get a loan. But nonetheless you get a sense of how much it’s gone up. Those houses now sell for three quarters of a million or more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: I never dreamed that a house would be sold for over a million in this neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: But they do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: But they do.\u003cbr>\n[2018-prop prop=5]\u003cbr>\nAGUILAR: I want to get into Proposition 5, but before we do that, I feel like we have to talk about Proposition 13. So can you tell me the story of how Proposition 13 became a California law?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Yeah, you have to go back to the late-to-mid-1970s. Jerry Brown was governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: After two terms of Ronald Reagan’s conservatism, California voters, who elected Jerry Brown as governor last year, were expecting several changes in state policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: The cost of everything was going up quickly because inflation was high, and back then, local governments could raise the property taxes whenever they wanted to. And so if they needed to pay for something, they raised property taxes a little bit, and so people’s tax bills were going up as the value of their homes went up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: Inflation’s hit the standard of living particularly hard here and soaring property taxes have been a major factor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: People, especially seniors, on fixed incomes were having a hard time staying in their homes. And at the same time the state had a pretty big budget surplus. And so there was all this talk in Sacramento about, “Well gee, why don’t we give people a tax rebate?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: But that didn’t happen. So there was this frustration building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>HOWARD JARVIS: I am forming the American Tax Reduction Movement for the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: There were two guys, Howard Jarvis and Paul Gann, who became the spokespeople for this tax revolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: And the purpose of this amendment is, number one, to reduce the amount of money that government takes in in taxes because we think the only way you can cut spending is to not give them the money in the first place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: What was the reaction to it? How popular was it back then?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It was really popular.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: Proposition 13 caused what may be a record voter turnout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: I mean this was a really overwhelming passage. It probably got about 65 percent of the vote in 1978.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JARVIS: We have proven that here in California, that we the people, not the politicians, are still the boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>REPORTER: A thunderous response from Howard Jarvis…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Proposition 13 did a few things. First, it taxed homes based on their 1976 values. Then for anyone buying a house after that, Prop 13 set the property tax rate at just 1 percent of home sales price. And it can only be increased by a maximum of 2 percent each year until the house is sold again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It has taken a lot of money away from schools. Those local property taxes are used to fund programs including education. I think when Prop 13 passed, California was near the top in per pupil spending. Now we’re more toward the bottom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Back to Ken. What does Proposition 13 mean for him? Like how does it affect him considering that there’s a lot of movement along his block?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Well, he’s clearly benefited from it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: And do you remember if you voted for it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: I think I did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: His tax bill is, I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s a lot less than somebody who lives next door and just bought the house and is paying taxes based on the market rate assessment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Can people move their low property tax rates around right now? Or does it just stick to the house or property that you own?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: If you’re 55 years or older or severely disabled, you can buy a home of the same or less value and take that with you to another county… if that county has agreed to accept that lower value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: So not all counties are in on this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Not all counties. In fact, most counties are not, so just about 10 of the 58 counties in California have agreed to accept this lower tax rate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: So what problem is Proposition 5 trying to solve?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: If you talk to realtors or if you talk to seniors…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CLIP: California realtors have an important chance to protect California’s homeowners and extend much needed property tax protection to seniors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: They have these big homes that they’re rattling around in, and they really would like to downsize. The problem is they’ve got this great deal on their property tax because they’ve been there so long and so they know if they move and buy a market value home, their tax rate is going to go way up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CLIP: It will remove an unfair move-in penalty or property tax spike that prevents many seniors from selling their single family home in order to downsize or move closer to their children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: The argument here is that they will sell their big house, move to a smaller house and free up their bigger house for young families that want a three- or four-bedroom place. The problem of course is can a young family afford to buy that house?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Who has introduced Proposition 5? Like who backs it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LYNDA EISENMANN: Hi, my name is Lynda Eisenmann. I’m a broker, real estate broker in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: The California Association of Realtors — and their national association as well — have kicked in at least $7 million to collect the signatures to get it on the ballot and then presumably to spend some of that money to help get it passed. They have an interest in it. You know, if you sell a house you get a commission, so they like that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>EISENMANN: It’s when people stay put that we have a more stagnant market in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: OK. Who’s on the other side? Like who is against Proposition 5?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Local governments are opposed to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Tenants rights groups?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Tenants groups. Yeah. I mean all these groups, including education advocates, they’re afraid that schools are going to get less money. David Chiu is an assemblyman from San Francisco. He is a big opponent of Prop 5. He thinks it’s a big tax giveaway to people who don’t really need it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CHIU: Prop 5 is an enormous tax break for longtime wealthy property owners who get to pile on more tax breaks on top of what they already have. While renters and first-time home buyers continue to face higher home prices it does nothing to actually address the housing crisis, and it continues to exacerbate the income inequality that is unfortunately the story all over the state of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: And the legislative analysts who analyzed this said it’s going to ultimately cost local governments about a billion dollars in lost revenue in the coming years if Prop 5 passes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Wow. So what does Ken think about Proposition 5? Does he think he’s going to vote for Proposition 5?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: You know he’s really thinking about it. He’s not sure. He clearly would benefit himself. On the other hand, he’s not in a big hurry to sell his house and move. In fact, he said “I’d like to be here till I’m 99 years old.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: In our case, I don’t think we will sell the property. We’ll pass it on to our grandkids and the grandkids’ kids and so forth. My daughter said, “No don’t sell it. Don’t sell it. When we get old enough, we won’t be able to buy a house.” Which pretty much came true, right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: She was right. That said, I think he likes the idea of Prop 5, but also he’s very thoughtful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: I think it might affect the tax base for those other counties or cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: You’re right. And what would that mean?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: Actually it would be something, I mean, to really think about before you voted against it or for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Now Prop 5 is not the only housing-related prop on the ballot. The one getting the most attention is about expanding rent control, Prop 10. We’ll have a whole episode about that one on Friday. But there are a couple of other housing props we want to flag for you. First, Prop 1.\u003cbr>\n[2018-prop prop=1]\u003cbr>\nVOICE OVER: Should the state issue $4 billion in bonds to fund the construction of affordable housing?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Money from Prop 1 would be used to give out low-interest loans for multi-family housing projects. It would also be used to help veterans buy homes. This would give California more housing, but some people say the real barrier to building is bureaucratic red tape and this wouldn’t address that. The $4 billion bond would ultimately cost California taxpayers just short of $6 billion over the next 35 years. And then there’s Prop 2.\u003cbr>\n[2018-prop prop=2]\u003cbr>\nVOICE OVER: Should the state be allowed to use money intended for mental health services to pay for housing for homeless Californians?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Back in 2004, voters passed Prop 63 which raised taxes on millionaires to fund mental health services. Lawmakers want to use some of that money to pay for housing for people with mental illness. But it’s not clear if they can legally do that. Prop 2 clears everything up. It would allow the state to issue $2 billion in bonds to fund housing projects for people who are homeless and have mental illness. And it would let those bonds be paid back using tax revenues from Prop 63. The so-called housing first method has worked to curb homelessness elsewhere, but putting this money toward housing would mean there would be less going toward treatment and other services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Theme music\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: I know we’ve thrown a lot at you today, so if you have more questions about any of this — especially Prop 5 — we’re having a Facebook Live where we can dig in even more. That’ll be on Wednesday, Oct. 17 at noon. You can RSVP ahead of time so you won’t miss it. Details at BayCurious.org. You can also check out KQED’s Voter Guide at kqed.org/elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Thanks to producer Jessica Placzek, politics editor Scott Shafer, and our friends at “The Bay” podcast: Erika Aguilar, Vinnee Tong and Devin Katayama. Love you guys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Tomorrow we’re talking about the props that could impact our health care in California — and potentially the entire country. Bay Curious is made in San Francisco at KQED. I’m Olivia Allen-Price.\u003c/p>\n\n",

And now with the state — and especially the Bay Area — in the middle of a housing crisis, voters are being asked to double down on Prop 13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Problem is, it doesn’t really increase the housing stock.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Today, Erika Aguilar and the team at “The Bay” podcast will dig into the pros and cons of Prop 5. Stick around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: So let’s start at the beginning. First of all tell me your name and a little bit about yourself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KENNETH WILKINS: Oh god.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Kenneth Wilkins is a longtime resident of North Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Scott Shafer is senior editor of the California Politics and Government Desk at KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Just spell your name for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: Kenneth. K-E-N-N-E-T-H.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: He’s been there… He was born basically in the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: And so you moved here, you said ’86?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: 1976.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It’s a beautiful neighborhood. It’s very quiet… tree-lined streets, mostly single-family homes, a few larger apartment buildings. There’s a lot of construction going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: It seems like everyone who purchased a house, they are refurbishing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: He was walking me down the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: This house was the Dickson’s here. And they were here when I came in 1976. And this one here, Mr. Armstrong — he helped us with some plumbing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: So he’s been on the block for 40 some years. How much was that house when he first bought it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Well, it was very funny. He pointed to a car, his car that was parked in front of the house. And he said…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: Actually it cost less than this car.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Is that right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: This car cost $21,000 I think. And it was less than that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It was like a Toyota. But it wasn’t a Tesla. It was like a beat up Toyota.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Wow. So that’s just representative of what the housing market looked like back then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It’s not something he could find in the cushions of his couch. He had to get a loan. But nonetheless you get a sense of how much it’s gone up. Those houses now sell for three quarters of a million or more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: I never dreamed that a house would be sold for over a million in this neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: But they do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: But they do.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\nAGUILAR: I want to get into Proposition 5, but before we do that, I feel like we have to talk about Proposition 13. So can you tell me the story of how Proposition 13 became a California law?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Yeah, you have to go back to the late-to-mid-1970s. Jerry Brown was governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: After two terms of Ronald Reagan’s conservatism, California voters, who elected Jerry Brown as governor last year, were expecting several changes in state policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: The cost of everything was going up quickly because inflation was high, and back then, local governments could raise the property taxes whenever they wanted to. And so if they needed to pay for something, they raised property taxes a little bit, and so people’s tax bills were going up as the value of their homes went up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: Inflation’s hit the standard of living particularly hard here and soaring property taxes have been a major factor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: People, especially seniors, on fixed incomes were having a hard time staying in their homes. And at the same time the state had a pretty big budget surplus. And so there was all this talk in Sacramento about, “Well gee, why don’t we give people a tax rebate?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: But that didn’t happen. So there was this frustration building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>HOWARD JARVIS: I am forming the American Tax Reduction Movement for the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: There were two guys, Howard Jarvis and Paul Gann, who became the spokespeople for this tax revolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: And the purpose of this amendment is, number one, to reduce the amount of money that government takes in in taxes because we think the only way you can cut spending is to not give them the money in the first place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: What was the reaction to it? How popular was it back then?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It was really popular.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NEWS CLIP: Proposition 13 caused what may be a record voter turnout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: I mean this was a really overwhelming passage. It probably got about 65 percent of the vote in 1978.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JARVIS: We have proven that here in California, that we the people, not the politicians, are still the boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>REPORTER: A thunderous response from Howard Jarvis…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Proposition 13 did a few things. First, it taxed homes based on their 1976 values. Then for anyone buying a house after that, Prop 13 set the property tax rate at just 1 percent of home sales price. And it can only be increased by a maximum of 2 percent each year until the house is sold again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: It has taken a lot of money away from schools. Those local property taxes are used to fund programs including education. I think when Prop 13 passed, California was near the top in per pupil spending. Now we’re more toward the bottom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Back to Ken. What does Proposition 13 mean for him? Like how does it affect him considering that there’s a lot of movement along his block?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Well, he’s clearly benefited from it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: And do you remember if you voted for it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: I think I did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: His tax bill is, I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s a lot less than somebody who lives next door and just bought the house and is paying taxes based on the market rate assessment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Can people move their low property tax rates around right now? Or does it just stick to the house or property that you own?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: If you’re 55 years or older or severely disabled, you can buy a home of the same or less value and take that with you to another county… if that county has agreed to accept that lower value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: So not all counties are in on this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Not all counties. In fact, most counties are not, so just about 10 of the 58 counties in California have agreed to accept this lower tax rate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: So what problem is Proposition 5 trying to solve?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: If you talk to realtors or if you talk to seniors…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CLIP: California realtors have an important chance to protect California’s homeowners and extend much needed property tax protection to seniors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: They have these big homes that they’re rattling around in, and they really would like to downsize. The problem is they’ve got this great deal on their property tax because they’ve been there so long and so they know if they move and buy a market value home, their tax rate is going to go way up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CLIP: It will remove an unfair move-in penalty or property tax spike that prevents many seniors from selling their single family home in order to downsize or move closer to their children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: The argument here is that they will sell their big house, move to a smaller house and free up their bigger house for young families that want a three- or four-bedroom place. The problem of course is can a young family afford to buy that house?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Who has introduced Proposition 5? Like who backs it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LYNDA EISENMANN: Hi, my name is Lynda Eisenmann. I’m a broker, real estate broker in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: The California Association of Realtors — and their national association as well — have kicked in at least $7 million to collect the signatures to get it on the ballot and then presumably to spend some of that money to help get it passed. They have an interest in it. You know, if you sell a house you get a commission, so they like that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>EISENMANN: It’s when people stay put that we have a more stagnant market in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: OK. Who’s on the other side? Like who is against Proposition 5?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Local governments are opposed to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Tenants rights groups?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: Tenants groups. Yeah. I mean all these groups, including education advocates, they’re afraid that schools are going to get less money. David Chiu is an assemblyman from San Francisco. He is a big opponent of Prop 5. He thinks it’s a big tax giveaway to people who don’t really need it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CHIU: Prop 5 is an enormous tax break for longtime wealthy property owners who get to pile on more tax breaks on top of what they already have. While renters and first-time home buyers continue to face higher home prices it does nothing to actually address the housing crisis, and it continues to exacerbate the income inequality that is unfortunately the story all over the state of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: And the legislative analysts who analyzed this said it’s going to ultimately cost local governments about a billion dollars in lost revenue in the coming years if Prop 5 passes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AGUILAR: Wow. So what does Ken think about Proposition 5? Does he think he’s going to vote for Proposition 5?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: You know he’s really thinking about it. He’s not sure. He clearly would benefit himself. On the other hand, he’s not in a big hurry to sell his house and move. In fact, he said “I’d like to be here till I’m 99 years old.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: In our case, I don’t think we will sell the property. We’ll pass it on to our grandkids and the grandkids’ kids and so forth. My daughter said, “No don’t sell it. Don’t sell it. When we get old enough, we won’t be able to buy a house.” Which pretty much came true, right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: She was right. That said, I think he likes the idea of Prop 5, but also he’s very thoughtful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: I think it might affect the tax base for those other counties or cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SHAFER: You’re right. And what would that mean?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>WILKINS: Actually it would be something, I mean, to really think about before you voted against it or for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Now Prop 5 is not the only housing-related prop on the ballot. The one getting the most attention is about expanding rent control, Prop 10. We’ll have a whole episode about that one on Friday. But there are a couple of other housing props we want to flag for you. First, Prop 1.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\nVOICE OVER: Should the state issue $4 billion in bonds to fund the construction of affordable housing?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Money from Prop 1 would be used to give out low-interest loans for multi-family housing projects. It would also be used to help veterans buy homes. This would give California more housing, but some people say the real barrier to building is bureaucratic red tape and this wouldn’t address that. The $4 billion bond would ultimately cost California taxpayers just short of $6 billion over the next 35 years. And then there’s Prop 2.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\nVOICE OVER: Should the state be allowed to use money intended for mental health services to pay for housing for homeless Californians?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Back in 2004, voters passed Prop 63 which raised taxes on millionaires to fund mental health services. Lawmakers want to use some of that money to pay for housing for people with mental illness. But it’s not clear if they can legally do that. Prop 2 clears everything up. It would allow the state to issue $2 billion in bonds to fund housing projects for people who are homeless and have mental illness. And it would let those bonds be paid back using tax revenues from Prop 63. The so-called housing first method has worked to curb homelessness elsewhere, but putting this money toward housing would mean there would be less going toward treatment and other services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Theme music\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: I know we’ve thrown a lot at you today, so if you have more questions about any of this — especially Prop 5 — we’re having a Facebook Live where we can dig in even more. That’ll be on Wednesday, Oct. 17 at noon. You can RSVP ahead of time so you won’t miss it. Details at BayCurious.org. You can also check out KQED’s Voter Guide at kqed.org/elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ALLEN-PRICE: Thanks to producer Jessica Placzek, politics editor Scott Shafer, and our friends at “The Bay” podcast: Erika Aguilar, Vinnee Tong and Devin Katayama.

"content": "\u003cp>If you’ve never been inside a henhouse with 8,000 chickens, it’s a pretty jarring experience. Everywhere you turn, there are brown and white feathers, and a sea of squawking, pecking birds, looking at you with their beady eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These girls are rockin’ and rollin',” says egg farmer Frank Hilliker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seeing those birds walk and perch wherever they like inside the henhouse, instead of living in cages, is a new experience for him, too. His family has run \u003ca href=\"http://www.hillikereggs.com/eggs/Home.html\" target=\"_blank\">Hilliker's Ranch Fresh Eggs \u003c/a>near San Diego for decades, and now he’s admiring his new $200,000 cage-free setup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Tell you the truth, if you asked me three or four years ago if I would ever do this, I’d tell you, 'You’re crazy, and it would never work.' But I’m pleasantly surprised. It’s working,” says Hilliker, hens pecking around his feet. “Is this better for the chickens? I’m not completely sure. But they seem pretty happy, and I’m happy I did it. It actually made farming fun again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He points to tiers where the birds can perch, ground the can scratch, and the boxes where they lay their eggs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The nest boxes are at a slight angle,” explains Hilliker. “So after their lay their eggs, they’ll roll out the back, and there’s a conveyer belt behind it that we turn on to bring the eggs out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hilliker made the changes to comply with the requirements of California’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.voterguide.sos.ca.gov/past/2008/general/title-sum/prop2-title-sum.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Proposition 2 \u003c/a>, which voters passed in 2008. The initiative, backed by animal rights activists, was designed to push farmers away from traditional battery cages, where hens were often packed in so tightly they couldn’t really move. Check out this \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKu6ry0kj1Y\" target=\"_blank\">musical ad\u003c/a> from the Yes on Prop 2 campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure, which voters passed by more than 63 percent, required egg-laying chickens to have enough room to lie down, stand up, sit down, turn around and fully extend their wings by Jan. 1, 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some producers, like Hilliker, are building brand-new facilities. Others are simply putting fewer hens into traditional battery cages and removing the partitions to allow more space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s not clear is just who will be coming around to make sure farmers like Hilliker are complying with everything Prop. 2 spelled out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nobody wants to touch it,” says Hilliker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/\" target=\"_blank\">The California Department of Food and Agriculture,\u003c/a> which generally inspects egg facilities, says it’s not in charge of enforcing Prop 2. Local law enforcement is, because the measure makes it a misdemeanor to cram hens into small cages. (That includes fines and potential jail time for farmers who break the law.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when I called sheriff’s offices in some of California’s top egg-producing counties, they were a little hesitant. Some of them even chuckled when I asked if they planned to visit henhouses with a tape measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I must say, unless there’s some directive that will come down, or the law binds us to that, there is no plan for us to go measure every henhouse in Merced County,” says Sgt. Delray Shelton, from the Merced County Sheriff’s Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, he added, “the law in general, whether it’s applicable to chickens and hens or people, is important to us, so we will do our very best.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shelton says county animal control officers will be the ones to cite farmers if they stumble across a henhouse where the birds seem to be squeezed into cages that are too small to comply with Prop. 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jan Glick, of the \u003ca href=\"http://cacda.org/\" target=\"_blank\">California Animal Control Directors Association\u003c/a>, confirms that’s the case statewide. Although animal control usually deals with things like rabies and bite investigations involving dogs and cats, they’re willing to take on hens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So if we got a complaint that there were animals producing eggs for sale that did not meet the requirements under the law, we would investigate,” says Glick, who's based at the Santa Barbara County animal shelter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notice she says IF they get a complaint. Local animal control officers are too busy to actually go around proactively inspecting egg farms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So who is watching the henhouse? State farm inspectors will be checking out how much space the birds have, but under a \u003ca href=\"http://ucanr.edu/sites/CESonomaAgOmbuds/files/174478.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">different regulation\u003c/a> that also took effect this week. That rule is focused on food safety and salmonella prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Are you confused yet? This stuff \u003cem>is\u003c/em> confusing. And the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/exec/public_affairs/cdfaexecstaffbios.html\" target=\"_blank\">state’s veterinarian\u003c/a>, Dr. Annette Jones, admits it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, I apologize to you and the public,” says Jones, who is with the California Department of Food and Agriculture. She says she understands consumers may be baffled by all these different egg rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s sometimes the nature of our propositions,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a sentiment echoed by Bill Dombrowski, who heads the \u003ca href=\"http://www.calretailers.com/\" target=\"_blank\">California Retailers Association,\u003c/a> which has been working with both in-state and out-of-state egg suppliers to make sure they’re ready for the new rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Part of the problem with Prop. 2, and propositions and initiatives in general, is that they’re not written to work,” says Dombrowksi. “Everybody’s confused.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That includes consumers. Egg cartons won’t be labeled Prop. 2 compliant. But starting this week, you will see new labels that say \"California Shell Egg Food Safety Compliant.\" That doesn’t necessarily mean the eggs meet Prop. 2 standards, but they do meet similar space requirements for the birds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But animal rights activists say the only way to enforce Prop. 2 is if consumers who voted for the measure now vote with their wallets, and choose eggs where they know the birds didn’t spend their time in a cage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If Prop. 2 is going to mean something, then food retailers in the state of California need to get on board with cage free,” says Wayne Pacelle, who directs the \u003ca href=\"http://www.humanesociety.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Humane Society of the United States\u003c/a>. “It’s very simple. Animals built to move should be allowed to move.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cage free. That’s like the setup Frank Hilliker has. That’s not to be mistaken with free range, which is another scenario where the birds get some time outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the big question is: How will all these choices and rules affect the price of your breakfast? Some economists are projecting a spike in egg prices -- although those prices have already been rising for other reasons: rising demand for eggs in Mexico and more fast-food restaurants serving egg-based breakfasts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, it may take a while to figure out if Prop. 2 -- or just market forces -- are to blame if egg prices rise. It’s the old chicken or egg question.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Everywhere you turn, there are brown and white feathers, and a sea of squawking, pecking birds, looking at you with their beady eyes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These girls are rockin’ and rollin',” says egg farmer Frank Hilliker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seeing those birds walk and perch wherever they like inside the henhouse, instead of living in cages, is a new experience for him, too. His family has run \u003ca href=\"http://www.hillikereggs.com/eggs/Home.html\" target=\"_blank\">Hilliker's Ranch Fresh Eggs \u003c/a>near San Diego for decades, and now he’s admiring his new $200,000 cage-free setup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Tell you the truth, if you asked me three or four years ago if I would ever do this, I’d tell you, 'You’re crazy, and it would never work.' But I’m pleasantly surprised. It’s working,” says Hilliker, hens pecking around his feet. “Is this better for the chickens? I’m not completely sure. But they seem pretty happy, and I’m happy I did it. It actually made farming fun again.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He points to tiers where the birds can perch, ground the can scratch, and the boxes where they lay their eggs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The initiative, backed by animal rights activists, was designed to push farmers away from traditional battery cages, where hens were often packed in so tightly they couldn’t really move. Check out this \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKu6ry0kj1Y\" target=\"_blank\">musical ad\u003c/a> from the Yes on Prop 2 campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure, which voters passed by more than 63 percent, required egg-laying chickens to have enough room to lie down, stand up, sit down, turn around and fully extend their wings by Jan. 1, 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some producers, like Hilliker, are building brand-new facilities. Others are simply putting fewer hens into traditional battery cages and removing the partitions to allow more space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s not clear is just who will be coming around to make sure farmers like Hilliker are complying with everything Prop. 2 spelled out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nobody wants to touch it,” says Hilliker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/\" target=\"_blank\">The California Department of Food and Agriculture,\u003c/a> which generally inspects egg facilities, says it’s not in charge of enforcing Prop 2. Local law enforcement is, because the measure makes it a misdemeanor to cram hens into small cages. (That includes fines and potential jail time for farmers who break the law.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when I called sheriff’s offices in some of California’s top egg-producing counties, they were a little hesitant.

Instead, he argued that Prop. 2 is a reasonable and prudent way to provide for backup cash during the state's most lean fiscal periods. And the ballot measure was one of a pair of propositions the governor used as a proxy re-election campaign in the final weeks of the election season.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Jerry Brown, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/10/04/jerry-brown-re-election-bid-quiet-just-like-he-wants-it\" target=\"_blank\">as we've mentioned before\u003c/a>, is running what amounts to a non-campaign for another four years, choosing instead to run a campaign for passage of Prop. 1 and Prop. 2 -- a proxy, of sorts, for his own re-election efforts. His only television ads in this election season have been for the two propositions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL8lhH2qNUE?rel=0&w=640&h=360]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Save water, save money,\" says Brown in the ads. Yes, but the visuals of those ads -- and the message that really resonates -- is the one about the state's drought.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if the ads connect with voters, the new statewide poll suggests there could be a different problem: Brown may not be the best person to reach some parts of the electorate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dig down deep into the survey and you’ll find what at best is skepticism from a number of voter subgroups. Conservative voters? Only 41 percent support Prop. 2. Voters who think the state is headed in the wrong direction? Only 42 percent support for the budget reserve measure. Latino voters? Only 44 percent are backing Prop. 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It may not be all the governor's fault, of course. And lest we forget to mention it, the new poll continues to show him poised to win an unprecedented fourth term on Nov. 4, besting GOP challenger Neel Kashkari in this latest poll by 16 percentage points. Still, those aren't all necessarily voters who are fans of Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take Republicans, for example. The new poll finds Prop. 2 support among GOP voters at 49 percent (and, as said earlier, self-described conservatives are even less enamored). But these should be the natural base for a proposal that automatically transfers more tax revenues to a reserve fund while also paying off billions in government debt over the next several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're seeing Republican support lagging\" for the proposition, said PPIC's Baldassare. \"They are only hearing about Proposition 2 from the Democratic governor.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of a more visible bipartisan team hasn't gone unnoticed by the official Yes on Prop. 2 campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would be benefiting if there were a more high-profile Republican spokesperson,\" said campaign manager Phillip Ung. \"We haven't been able to identify that person.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But again, it's not just Republicans. Even more striking are the Latino voter numbers. PPIC's new poll shows Brown's re-election bid supported by an overwhelming 73 percent of Latinos surveyed -- 29 points higher than their support for the state budget measure on which Brown is starring in TV ads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prop. 2 is also struggling in the Bay Area, with only 44 percent support in the new poll. Pollster Baldassare suggests that some of the weakness among Democrats or liberals could be with those who believe the state needs to restore public services cut during the recession more than it needs to sock money away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of these numbers are a sign that the complex budget reserve proposition is a sure-fire loser, with a little less than two weeks to go before Election Day. But there are three reasons that Prop. 2 backers would be right to worry about the trend lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, the historic tendency of California voters who sit on the fence up until the last minute when it comes to a ballot measure is to ultimately vote against it (or leave it blank, which is really the same thing). As political consultants know, it's much harder to get a \"yes\" than a \"no.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, with more voters casting ballots by mail, and more of those ballots coming in every day, there's precious little time to change minds. The days of a last-minute campaign turnaround are dwindling in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And third -- perhaps most importantly -- Brown is unlikely to do much more PR to sway voters in the final days. His campaign in support of Prop. 2 has slowly started to include others, but it's still a pretty quiet effort. And even then, these are ads that are really geared toward the water bond. Check out the latest ad, featuring a woman called \"Farmer Jenny.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytVk8uxOdDA?rel=0&w=640&h=360]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The official Prop. 2 campaign, which is not affiliated with Brown's re-election, believes there is some momentum. But this measure, long championed by the governor, in so many ways is really his to carry over the goal line. It may be in scoring position, but there's not a lot of time left on the clock.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Jerry Brown, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/10/04/jerry-brown-re-election-bid-quiet-just-like-he-wants-it\" target=\"_blank\">as we've mentioned before\u003c/a>, is running what amounts to a non-campaign for another four years, choosing instead to run a campaign for passage of Prop. 1 and Prop. 2 -- a proxy, of sorts, for his own re-election efforts. His only television ads in this election season have been for the two propositions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/PL8lhH2qNUE?rel=0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/PL8lhH2qNUE?rel=0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Save water, save money,\" says Brown in the ads. Yes, but the visuals of those ads -- and the message that really resonates -- is the one about the state's drought.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if the ads connect with voters, the new statewide poll suggests there could be a different problem: Brown may not be the best person to reach some parts of the electorate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dig down deep into the survey and you’ll find what at best is skepticism from a number of voter subgroups. Conservative voters? Only 41 percent support Prop. 2. Voters who think the state is headed in the wrong direction? Only 42 percent support for the budget reserve measure. Latino voters? Only 44 percent are backing Prop. 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It may not be all the governor's fault, of course. And lest we forget to mention it, the new poll continues to show him poised to win an unprecedented fourth term on Nov. 4, besting GOP challenger Neel Kashkari in this latest poll by 16 percentage points. Still, those aren't all necessarily voters who are fans of Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take Republicans, for example. The new poll finds Prop. 2 support among GOP voters at 49 percent (and, as said earlier, self-described conservatives are even less enamored). But these should be the natural base for a proposal that automatically transfers more tax revenues to a reserve fund while also paying off billions in government debt over the next several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're seeing Republican support lagging\" for the proposition, said PPIC's Baldassare. \"They are only hearing about Proposition 2 from the Democratic governor.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lack of a more visible bipartisan team hasn't gone unnoticed by the official Yes on Prop. 2 campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would be benefiting if there were a more high-profile Republican spokesperson,\" said campaign manager Phillip Ung. \"We haven't been able to identify that person.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But again, it's not just Republicans. Even more striking are the Latino voter numbers. PPIC's new poll shows Brown's re-election bid supported by an overwhelming 73 percent of Latinos surveyed -- 29 points higher than their support for the state budget measure on which Brown is starring in TV ads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prop. 2 is also struggling in the Bay Area, with only 44 percent support in the new poll. Pollster Baldassare suggests that some of the weakness among Democrats or liberals could be with those who believe the state needs to restore public services cut during the recession more than it needs to sock money away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>None of these numbers are a sign that the complex budget reserve proposition is a sure-fire loser, with a little less than two weeks to go before Election Day. But there are three reasons that Prop. 2 backers would be right to worry about the trend lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, the historic tendency of California voters who sit on the fence up until the last minute when it comes to a ballot measure is to ultimately vote against it (or leave it blank, which is really the same thing). As political consultants know, it's much harder to get a \"yes\" than a \"no.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, with more voters casting ballots by mail, and more of those ballots coming in every day, there's precious little time to change minds. The days of a last-minute campaign turnaround are dwindling in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And third -- perhaps most importantly -- Brown is unlikely to do much more PR to sway voters in the final days. His campaign in support of Prop. 2 has slowly started to include others, but it's still a pretty quiet effort. And even then, these are ads that are really geared toward the water bond. Check out the latest ad, featuring a woman called \"Farmer Jenny.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/ytVk8uxOdDA?rel=0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/ytVk8uxOdDA?rel=0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The official Prop. 2 campaign, which is not affiliated with Brown's re-election, believes there is some momentum. But this measure, long championed by the governor, in so many ways is really his to carry over the goal line. It may be in scoring position, but there's not a lot of time left on the clock.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
