Of course Rethuglikkkans are against it because they know their policies are not popular and they can’t gerrymander ballot initiative votes.

@GOP fled to Idaho rather than vote. They warned deputies authorized to bring them back (by the Gov. under the state Constitution) to come heavily armed.

@gop starts another civil war.
