    California Proposition 6. Prohibits slavery and involuntary servitude.

    This proposed amendment to California's constitution would bar slavery in any form and repeal a current provision allowing involuntary servitude as a punishment for crime.

    52% reporting, 54.9% No, 45.1% Yes

    What.

      The craziest part is that there was not even any opposition submitted for this, no groups telling you not to vote for it, no signs saying NO ON 6... Nah the little fascist piggies that reside in this state just read this and said fuck that, I don't wanna end slavery.

      i mean, your average american can't read, and the ones that can read are 30-40 years old and read harry potter. it's possible most people didn't even understand what any of that meant.

      Ugh I saw 64% yes on that earlier and was happy about it, turns out it was only SF and not the statewide results. Disgraceful
