Hey friends, countrymen, lovers, etc. this post is just for the Americans out there, but if any of you all need help figuring out what steps you need to take to vote or where to find a voter guide for your region (Ballotopedia is a solid starting point if you want to see what's on your ballot) I'd be happy to help out, just shoot me a message, I can promise I'll find an answer for you in the first case and I'll do my best in the later.

#That said Fellow Californians:#I know prop 33 looks good #And is a good idea generally #But this specific setup of rent control is implemented in such a way as to be gotten around by not building #Which is not workable in our current legislative environment at various municipal levels #Maeamian dot tumblr dot com recommends a NO vote on prop 33 #Although it will not fault you for being swayed by the arguements in favor #And it's not unsalvagable if it passes but it will need additional legislative work to protect its intent #Because as is its intent will not see implementation where it is most needed #At least according to the people in CA I know and trust to talk about housing issues #This isn't from firsthand expertise but I trust the experts I got it from #(Michael Tae Sweeny on bsky dot app among others)#ANYHOW the answer in the first case may be travel back in time if you've missed certain deadlines in certain states #But developing time travel will be a fun side project you can do #Also probably don't bother putting in your email on ballotpedia but you can if you want #Just like that will get you emails and why would you want more of those #This is not rebloggable because it does not apply to people who are not followers #Although anyone who follows is welcome doesn't have to be mutuals
