Still more on Prop. 66

Especially since lately coming down with a touch of Blakely fatigue, I am now having fun tracking the debate over California’s Proposition 66, the ballot measure which seeks to amend the state’s harsh Three Strikes Law by providing that the third strike would have to be a serious or violent felony to trigger a sentence of 25 years to life. (Prior major posts about Prop. 66 and Three Strikes in California can be found here and here.)

There are two interesting additions to this debate in today’s California papers: this informative SF Chronicle article on Prop. 66, and this SJ Mercury News editorial encouraging readers to “Vote Yes To Fix Three Strikes.”
