I don't always read all the info but I follow the money, so for instance anything "Howard Jarvis" is for, I'm against. Can you at least find out what groups or people endorsed your various choices in Texas?

Hah, voted last night, saw his name on 3 props.

Just so you know, he's been dead for years, but the Association continues in his name to keep money in the clutches of landlords and property owners, rather than let any go towards support for those in need. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Jarvis

Low and medium income housing my ass.
