Title
Pete Rates the Propositions
Description
Pete Stahl has been rating California ballot propositions since 1980. A native of San Diego and graduate of La Jolla High School, Pete started writing his reviews while a student at Harvard.
As a new voter, he was appalled at the hysterical tone and utter lack of objectivity of the official arguments in the ballot pamphlet. He felt an acute need for a disinterested party to cut through the posturing and provide sensible summaries and opinions. It struck him that his own research and ideas might be of use, so he wrote up his positions and circulated them among friends and family. Thus Pete Rates the Propositions began.
Since then, Pete Rates has grown into a popular resource for voters across the state, first in newsletter form, and now as a website, at www.peterates.com.
