IIRC all but one of the ballot measures failed in the last election, putting Arnie on the defensive you now see him operating from.
The people here are sick and tired of our govt and its inadequacies, and are not willing to help it by voting in measures that will resolve nothing but continued mismanagement. It's plain and simple.
The citizens are getting wiser about the govt's ineptitude.
