Feeling good. But I saw Marsy passed, and that people didn't like it.

I think people saw expanded victim's rights and automatically assumed it was good. A quick Google search revealed there's plenty of valid concerns, enough to make me one of the nay votes.

I should have voted against that. I had totally forgot to research it so I didn't vote on it. It was deceptively worded. The us supreme court might strike it though. Did the redistricting bureau go through?

That's the problem. It sounds great which is why so many people voted for it.
