Here is a thumbnail summary of the state ballot issues in Colorado with my recommendations.
Yes. B - Repeals Gallagher Amendment. Together with TABOR and other measures underfunds schools and local governments, and overconstrains state budget.
Yes. C - Make it easier for charities to get bingo licenses. Does no harm.
No. 76 - Misleading language actually disenfranchises people.
Yes. 77 - Allows more kinds of gambling at Colorado casinos with local approval.
Yes. EE - nicotine tax. More kinds of nicotine taxed at significantly higher rates.
Yes. 113 - Adds Colorado to National Popular Vote compact when enough states approve it. The electoral college is bad and this could help eliminate it.
Yes. 114 - Reintroduce gray wolves to Colorado, compensate herders for losses. Good ecologically for Colorado and fair to farmers impacted by it.
No. 115- Prohibits late term abortions. Probably unconstitutional anyway.
No. 116 - Reduces income tax rate. The state needs to money and is already broke.
No. 117 - Expands scope of TABOR to new public enterprise formation. TABOR is bad.
Yes. 118 - Government run family and medical paid leave with payroll tax. 0.9% payroll tax - half employer, half employee.
