Carl DeMaio and Reform California have released their “Plain English” voter guide to give you an easy-to-understand explanation of the ballot measures and to grade candidates.
Reform California is organizing free events to help make voting simple, fun, and secure while distributing this voter guide to attendees. We can give you pointers on how to host your own event in your area, or attend an existing event near you!
Reform California needs volunteers to canvass their neighborhood and distribute the voter guide.

Prop 1 – Vote NO
Plain English Title: Raids Treatment Programs to Subsidize Government Welfare Housing
Politicians’ Ballot Title: Authorizes $6.38 Billion in Bonds to Build Mental Health Treatment Facilities; Provides Housing for the Homeless
California’s homelessness crisis will absolutely get worse if Prop 1 passes! Prop 1 raids and diverts funding from treatment programs that serve homeless people in favor of giving billions in subsidies to rich developers for expensive government-subsidized mega housing projects. The mega government housing projects that would be subsidized under Prop 1 have been criticized by numerous independent government auditors for being wasteful – costing as much as $1 million per unit! That is hardly “affordable housing!”
Prop 1 also eliminates your right to vote to reject government welfare housing projects from being placed in your neighborhood. We need to reject Prop 1 and tell politicians to use our precious funds for more efficient options like treatment and shelter beds for the homeless!
Measure A – City of San Diego Only (VOTE YES)
Authorizing the City Auditor and Audit Committee to Use Outside Legal Counsel Instead of Elected City Attorney
The audit committee’s independence is vitally important to hold politicians accountable. If the audit committee believes that the city attorney is not providing impartial and appropriate legal support, they should have the option of using outside independent counsel.
Measure B – Mountain Empire Unified School District (VOTE NO)
A property tax increase! As enrollment declines in public schools in California, school districts need to consider more cost-effective alternatives.
Measure C – Rincon Ranch Community Services District (VOTE NO)
A property tax increase!
