Proposition 47 ceases criminal charges; stirs little reaction

Barry Krisberg quoted in San Francisco Chronicle, September 3, 2014

“I think what is fascinating is that there seems to be almost no opposition to this,” says Barry Krisberg. “You’d think in the usual California politics you’d have the right saying this and the left saying something else. But there’s been no campaigning (in opposition) to speak of, no one is spending any money on defeating it and the polls have been running 60 percent positive.”
