Every day, more California newspapers are urging voters to oppose Proposition 32.  What's most important, though, is how strongly they're condemning the initiative as dishonest. 

"Fraud," "sham," "deception," "facade" - these aren't words anyone would use to describe real reform, but that's exactly what they're saying about Prop 32.

Here are a few of the most recent editorials against Prop 32:

Sacramento Bee, 9/23/2012

"Once more, initiative promoters are trying to mislead voters by claiming to offer campaign finance reform. But just as they did in 1998 and 2005, voters should reject the deception by voting down Proposition 32, a transparent power grab that purports to 'stop special interest money.'"

Contra Costa Times, 9/20/2012

"It is a deceptive sham that would magnify the influence of wealthy interests while shutting out those with competing views."

San Francisco Chronicle, 9/17/2012

"The bulk of the financial backing for Prop. 32 has come from conservative ideologues who have made no secret of their desire to tamp down the clout of labor unions. A group linked to the billionaire Koch brothers just poured $4 million into a committee just formed to help pass Prop. 32."
