Yet another court has turned the attempt by US Term Limits to challenge Attorney General Jerry Brown's title and summary language for the measure to reduce and reform the term limits of state legislators.
Legal experts and political observers said there was little chance a court would overturn the AG's correct interpretation of the term limits reform initiative. The challenge was widely regarded as a publicity stunt designed to garner headlines for the right-wing organization challenging the term limits initiative. Fortunately, only a handful of newspapers, including the Sacramento Bee, wrote about the lawsuit.
Supporters of the inititative are expected to turn in more than one million signatures in July. It enjoys strong support in statewide polls, most recently a 56-28 percent edge in a survey conducted by San Jose State University.
