California Governor Has 3 Days to Decide on Bills that Impact Elections

During September, the California legislature passed three bills that are probably of interest to readers of this blog. They are (1) SB 37, the National Popular Vote plan; (2) AB 583, to set up a pilot project for public funding of campaigns; (3) SB 1322, which removes some state laws that discriminate against present and past members of the Communist Party.

As of Sunday evening, September 28, it does not appear that Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has acted on any of these three bills. However, according to this story, he is vetoing some bills just because he doesn’t have time to read them all, so some get an automatic veto just because he can’t cope with the workload.

  1. Hey Arnold:

    1. Terrible idea: VETO
    2. Violates Free Speech: VETO
    3. Restores Liberty to citizens: Yes, sign it!

    Now you won’t have to read these bills.

  2. What ??? ANY governor reads ANY bill any more ???

    NO ARMY of party hacks in each Guv’s office to read bills — while they are being enacted in each party hack gerrymander State legislature ???

  3. Yeah, uh, he doesn’t have time to read them? What a joke. In that case, the default action should be to trust the elected legislature and allow them to pass. Why would the the default be to veto any legislation?

  4. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger do the right things , we should not allow members of the Communist Party and Terrorist to work freely in America .
