You perform these onerous tasks so that we do not have to, and for that you have our heartfelt gratitude.

Great take on last night’s ridiculous resolution. If anyone is curious whether 4 of the 5 city council members are firmly entrenched with Trump and the MAGA agenda, you have your answer.

My gratitude is enormous. Thanks for giving local politics the scrutiny that legacy media ignores. Your writing never fails to bring a few smiles to my mornings. Gracias.

Thanks for doing this, Jeff, and sparing us all the pain of sitting through these long, boring slogs ourselves

Prop 39 is bullshit if you ask me. It's voter suppression, plain and simple, masquerading as responsible government policy, and all these hacks know better. It's just a variation of the Upton Sinclair quote "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it."

They know what they're doing. Voter fraud is practically nonexistent in this country. It is next to impossible in California, and the risk of trying to pull it off is so much greater than any individual reward derived by doing so. Does a noncitizen or undocumented individual really give a rat's ass about the outcome of the elections enough to go out of his/her way to risk deportation or jail time to cast one illicit vote that will not even move the needle? No way! They are desperately trying their hardest to survive and provide for their families in this difficult economy.

It's all a ruse to cling to power. Fuck these assholes. If only more people on the Left had as much passion and drive to make the sacrifices and commitments necessary to do this kind of work as these MGATs do. They're all a bunch of hyper motivated kool-aid drinkers. I guess the rest of us have all been too busy working, living our lives, and supporting our families. Let's hope this changes.

And yes, God bless Stephanie Oddo. This world needs more people like her.

What do you care? it only requires Citizens to provide ID to get benefits - exactly like the rest of California that ships over $100 billion to central america every year of your hard earned tax dollars! don't worry, Jeff - you still get to import people instead of letting citizens make them - but Mexico made abortion legal in 2023 - so you may need to go farther

No. Prop 39 requires proof of citizenship to vote. Do you have your birth certificate handy? Not a copy--a certified by the registrar version? Many of us over 70 would find that onerous.

The disjointed ramblings of a low information Trump partisan. Make it make sense, Achtera.

What you're claiming is patently false. All of it. There's not 1 thing you've written that is truth. Just go away- we know you don't like what Jeff writes about. You know what I do when I don't like what someone consistently writes about? *I don't read their threads*

It's literally a waste of your time.
