Newspaper Editorials Throw Down Against Dirty Tricks Initiative

by: Bob Brigham

Thu Aug 30, 2007 at 11:23:40 AM PDT


Stockton Record, "Awarding California's electoral votes based on the outcome in each congressional district is unfair, harmful to democratic precepts and a blatant political power grab."

OC Register, "A proposed change, which could be on next June's ballot, in the way California's votes are allocated in the presidential election might have a sheen of fairness, but it is nakedly partisan and profoundly subversive of our constitutional system."

San Francisco Chronicle, "This is nothing but dirty politics."

The New York Times, "It is actually a power grab on behalf of Republicans."

Oakland Tribune "It's an obvious political ploy." (Julia)
