We should be able to vote for what we consider the best from each party.

Hopefully this will move candidates more toward the middle, eliminating some of the divisiveness we have. I'd prefer to vote for the best candidates, not party.

yes every voter should have the right to vote for whom ever they feel is the best and for what ever prop that they agree with no matter what party supports it.

This allows everyone to vote for who they feel is the best candidate, despite their party affiliation.

I absolutely agree that we should have an open primary. It should not matter what party belong to. People vote across party lines all the time. Plus there would definetly be more voter turnout.

Ofcourse, regardless of what party you belong to , this should always be open, also curbs the cheaters.

Safe parking programs have a proven track record of successfully taking people from being homeless into having a place of their own. Safe parking programs cut down on costs to cities for ambulance calls, police calls, visits to emergency rooms and mental health crises that costs taxpayers money.

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install
