Re: California bullet train still a go
What they're doing isn't what the people voted on. 64% want the opportunity to re-vote since the plan has changed so much. The Democrats control Sacramento, if they insist on forcing this down the throats of California taxpayers when the plan is so obviously different from what we voted on the Democrats just may find themselves in the minority party come Jan 2013 and Jerry Browndoggle fathering California's second tax revolt. it was crap just like this that brought about Prop 13.
A Field Poll conducted in November 2011 says that 64% of Californians want the opportunity for a re-vote. Furthermore, 59% of those voters say that they would reject the plan, if they could vote on it again. Of those who voted for Proposition 1A in 2008, 37% said they would now vote against it.[10] The poll was conducted from November 15-27, 2011 among a random sample of 1,000 registered voters in California.[11]
