The surreal remote conventions are over, and now Labor Day weekend marks the home stretch toward this year’s election. We interview the candidates as well as the groups supporting and opposing the ballot measures, but that’s just part of the process. Proposition 14, for example, is a bond to fund the state’s stem cell research institute, which was created and funded by a ballot measure in 2004. Proposition 15 would modify California’s famous Proposition 13 property tax measure, adopted in 1978. Proposition 16 would repeal the ban on affirmative action in public programs that voters adopted in 1996, and Proposition 20 would partially roll back criminal justice ballot measures adopted in 2014 and 2016.
