I was reading around this a.m. and noticed that people are saying that there are articles, blogs, and listserv discussions where people were blaming the passage of prop 8 on a higher voter turnout rate?
so far, I can't actually find an article or blog post that does that. Does anyone know of examples?
..........
Yes, this idea has definitely developed long legs.
