Latest Vote.

We had a bunch of referendum to vote on last tuesday. The big ones were refs C and D. C would let the state keep some of the money it collected as opposed to refunding it as required by the previous referendum called TABOR - tax payers bill of rights. Anyway pretty much everything on the ballot passed except for D. Which is fine by me. If even the Republican govenor is a proponent of C, it's got some pretty wide support.
One thing that didn't have a lot of politician support was ref 100. It made marijuana possesion not a crime in Denver. At least by Denver law. Colorado and the U.S. Guvmnit still be hatin. I'm glad this went through. I don't know how much it could change anything though. If you walk around Civic Center park (between the state capitol and Denver city hall.) its has looked like a Hooverville and smelled like a Phish concert for a looong time.
Also notable is that all the headlines have been a variation - "Truly a mile HIGH city". HA!
