The San Jose Mercury News has this story about a local ballot measure placed on the November ballot by the Santa Clara Valley Water Agency. Election laws say the measure’s description on the ballot cannot exceed 75 words, but the description submitted by the agency is 77 words. The Agency then tried to correct the problem, but has not been able to do so. Thanks to Around the Capitol for the link.
Thank God. I live in Santa Clara County. The Silicon Valley Taxpayers’ Association always does good work.
Hmm, this in a world where major news often comes at 140 characters or less on Twitter.
