Craig and Lou at the ballot box: Proposition 40 – Director's cut ending

The stunning conclusion of our series on decision making in the California November election. OK, not stunning, but at least it's over.

Here it is, the big finish!  Today we close out our series on how to make an intelligent decision on ballot propositions with a look at Prop. 40: The senate redistricting iniiative.

Wait.  Didn't we already determine how to redistrict legislative seats?  Yes, we did, but that doesn't mean we have to accept it.  This measure will change how we redistrict the State Senate Districts, nothing else.  Does it make sense?  You decide.

And hang on for the thrilling conclusion as we wrap up with the question: What is wrong with the initiative process in California.
