Get yer banjos out -- It's the Proposition Song! If the weighty voter guide that arrived in your mail has become your dog's favorite chew toy, the California Voter Foundation has musical way to try get across what the 13 ballot propositions on the November ballot are all about: The Proposition Song.
The catchy folksong was written by the foundation's president, Kim Alexander and can be found at their web site. <http://www.calvoter.org/voter/elections/2006/general/props/song/index.html> It's hard to argue with the chorus: "It's the Proposition Song; Cause the ballot is too darn long!"
