California Governor Jerry Brown has only one day left (Sunday, October 15) to decide whether to sign, veto, or let take effect without signature, these three interesting election law bills:
SB 149 requires presidential primary candidates to release copies of their income tax returns for the last five years. AB 469 changes the requirements for petitions in lieu of filing fee, for ballot access. AB 837 requires election officials to take many steps to inform independent voters that those voters are free to choose the presidential primary ballots of certain political parties.
Veto = vestige of Roman tyrant emperors and DARK AGE killer monarchs – esp king/queen of England.
NOOOO vetoes — part of getting TOTAL separation of powers.
IE — esp LAWS to control ALL executive officers — shall, may, shall not do.
