Texas

Proposition 7 will establish the Texas Energy Fund to finance the construction, maintenance and operation of electric facilities to ensure the state power grid remains reliable. The Public Utility Commission of Texas will oversee the fund.

That language is somewhat misleading. It'll only fund fossil fuel-burning electric facilities. I voted against it on that ground. The legislature could have made it applicable to all forms of power plant, but they just had to give their oil and gas cronies a handout.

Proposition 12 will eliminate the Galveston County Treasurer’s Office, with other county officials taking over the duties of the treasurer.

I'll be waiting for the major financial corruption story to come out of Galveston County in the next few years.

Proposition 3 will prevent people and entities from being taxed based on their assets, which is known as a wealth tax. Texas does not have any form of wealth taxes.

I just thought this one was stupid. Texas doesn't have a wealth tax. A wealth tax would never pass the Texas legislature. It would be vetoed by the governor if it did. It's like an constitutional amendment banning monsters under the bed.
