You might be wondering why we have a constitutional amendment on this year's ballot -- we normally have them each odd-numbered year after a legislative session. These two propositions were placed on the ballot to close a loophole and help catch up with inflation, so they could not wait.
Savvy voters may also be wondering why not all school boards and cities appear. Some may be included on the November general election (e.g. gubernatorial, or midterm) ballot, while others are still on the May local election ballot. Pros and cons there.
Here they are. Voting ends 7 p.m. Saturday, May 7. And don't forget to turn back around and vote again in the May 24 Primary Runoff! More info on that coming soon.
