This coming election there is only one critical piece of legislation on my mind.
I WANT HARD BOOZE AT COSTCO!
Your costco doesn't have liquor? It has to be its own separate building, but our costco has boatloads of liquor. Really cheap place to get 1.5L of some pretty premium brands, too
I AM CONFUSED AND ANGRY. I WANT TO BE ABLE TO PURCHASE A $2 HOTDOG & SODA COMBO IN ADDITION TO A BUCKET OF RUM!!!

Shocking news, different states have different laws regarding the sale of liquor.

The only election commercials I've seen are the ones for opening liquor sales outside of the state stores, so I think everyone's nothing but alcoholics.
I don't think there's any ballot initiatives here in Connecticut. There is elections for the state legislature and municipal elections. We don't only have mayors here, some of the smaller towns have things like First Selectman or Town Manager, who generally serve in the same capacity as a mayor.
I do research the candidates, but I am an unapologetic liberal and almost always vote Democratic.
Coincidentally, Issue 2 gets talked about here a bit due to Quinnipac University doing a poll in Ohio asking citizens there about Issue 2. In case you put any consideration into polls, the vote is 57 to 32 percent in favor of rejecting Issue 2. I think that essentially means if people voted this way, issue 2 would be defeated. Issue 2 was an initiative to uphold Ohio's Senate Bill 5, which removed some collective-bargaining rights for workers in state and local government.
I would vote against issue 2 if I lived in Ohio. Sorry, Ohioans.
If I have anything wrong, let me know. The reason I bring this topic up although I don't live in Ohio is because they tried to pull something similar here, but it was voted down by the legislature.
The unions' rights issue is quickly becoming a national one, please take heed.
P.S. Connecticut also has a law banning alcohol sales in stores on Sundays. Repeal dat sumbitch!

In Washington, hard liquor can only be sold at state-run stores.

Huh. I can't find anything on I-1183 in my voter's pamphlet.
When we changed our hot dogs to ones that weren't kosher to keep them $1.50 you should have heard the wailing and crying from some of the members. Of course my building is in south florida, so I might have a different demographic than most, but it was certainly hilarious to watch.

The only strict alcohol laws we have in California involve drinking and driving
No open containers anywhere in the car
And it is illegal for anyone under 21 to drive with any amount of alcohol in their blood
But there are no restrictions on selling it that I know of

Well, it is a very important part to the belief systems of an entire religious group...
Oh I know. It was more that they thought we owed it to them that I found hilarious. Kind of like when corperate found out our building didn't use the two different opening times for the different kinds of memberships. So all of a sudden gold stars weren't allowed into the building at 10:00 am anymore like the executive members were. OMG the bitching and moaning. Priceless. And now we are back to everybody in at 10:00 am again. Until an auditor notices again.

However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.

I did not know this. I guess I have some reading to do.
both yes and no campaigns will lie to you
the yes campaign claims that a yes vote will result in savings for the consumer and increased revenue for the state
the no campaign claims that they are just defending our communities, that privatized liquor will automatically result in children getting hammered all over the damn place (they notably neglect to mention that by "children" they mean "adults who aren't quite old enough to buy alcohol but can pass as such")
the reality is that the vast majority of both campaigns are funded by business- pro by costco, con by an amalgam of beer and wine distributors (they don't want to have to compete with hard liquor distributors for shelf space in grocery stores)
the stranger has been covering this really well
and say what you will about their general liberal bias, but they have historically been very vocal advocates of privatizing liquor

Or not so much that you owed them, but that paying customers were letting Costco know they weren't happy with the change. You know, valuable feedback for a business.

Yeah everything I've read sounds like that, except I have not read anyone claim that booze will be cheaper, just more conveniently available. Ther revenue for the state seems pretty well researched, so there's that.
I'll read that article in the meantime and hopefully come to a decision.
