Regarding ballot initiatives in Maine; Maine passed a resolution prohibiting election funding by foreign governments, including entities with partial foreign government ownership or control.
The Pine Tree Power Company initiative decisively failed.
A right to repair initiative requiring vehicle manufacturers to provide access to vehicle on board diagnostic systems to owners and repair facilities passed.
An attempt to allow out of states to gather initiative signatures failed.
Texas, not too surprisingly, had a bunch of initiatives on its ballot. Some of interest here:
A right to farm, ranch, harvest timber, practice horticulture and engage in wildlife management was added to the State Constitution. The vote was overwhelmingly in favor.
Voters authorized an ad valorem tax exemption on medical and biomedical equipment.
An effort to raise judicial retirement age from 75 to 79 (what the heck?) failed, thank goodness.
A resolution to prohibit a tax on net wealth passed.
