I woke up today to a new America. This was a very interesting election because of the interesting propositions that passed here in Arizona. All of the propositions that passed regarding illegal immigration passed with flying colors, but the candidates (Graf and Hayworth) who were in favor of those propositions the most didn't win. I guess the people of Arizona figured they could take care of the issue by voting yes on all of these issues.
However the gay marriage ban (prop 107) did not pass which is interesting because of the fact that the fairly conservative immigration propositions did pass so overwhelmingly. The other propositions that had a lot to do with tobacco did and didn't pass. Propositions 201 and 206 were very close to the same proposition but very different all at the same time. 201 which was the harsher of the two was the elected proposition. Along with early child development proposition 203 passed which would put an .80 cent tax on "cigars and other tobacco products". The minimum wage proposition 202 did pass along with the animal protection proposition 204.
I think that I will go out and collect all of the political signs and have a huge fire. Just joking, but I do hope that they are taken care of fast. It didn't completely go my way in all aspects but some good did happen. What ever happens I still have most of the constitution on my side.
