The Vote No Mailers Are Already Out.

A mailing from Charles T. Munger, Jr., of Protect Voters First came in the mail today. The headline on the flyer is: "Vote NO in the Special Election." It didn't take them long. GCN must have struck a nerve.

on redistricting, i.e. Texas................

Blue states will. Both sides, party are not the same.

One party (blue) believes in democracy.

One (red) does not.

This difference will cause a failure in the future of our party. When I first voted….(1976) 😳, a was a very dedicated Kennedy Liberal… I still am. I carry the “ I am a Liberal” speech in my wallet. I am sorry to say that the blue states are failing the constituents in a big way. If they watch the red states simply change the guidelines of voting and not, as Gov. Newsom says…. “Fight Fire with Fire”, then we will suffer a complete failure in our party. I can only hope this redistricting will be counted by California, NewYork, etc.

He was this rich guy who offered to fund a monstrous dormitory on the UCSB campus. The plans for this building included no windows in students rooms. The administration was going to accept but after public outcry they declined.
