"California, an extremely liberal state, voted in a 72% majority referendum for the three strikes policy." Incorrect. In 1994, when the three strikes legislation passed, CA was a purple state with a moderate Republican governor. It is the anti-immigrant rhetoric around Prop 208 in 1996 that undermined the GOP in the state, by driving the majority of the young and non-white into the arms of the Democrats. |
