Missouri Proposition C (Obamacare) Returns: Opt out - 73.6% Stay in - 26.4% UPDATED
282 442 of 3354 precincts reporting.
The first of 3 (I think) state referendums on Obamacare, to amend state law to "deny the government authority to 'penalize citizens for refusing to purchase private health insurance or infringe upon the right to offer or accept direct payment for lawful healthcare services.'" Last month a Missouri judge rejected a challenge to remove Prop C from the ballot.
We know what Pete Stark thinks. Here's hoping Missouri sends DC a big "oh, well then allow us to retort."
UPDATE: 1517 precincts reporting, YES: 75.6% NO: 24.4% (or Yes votes only leading by 51.2% as that goober ExJon would put it)
Question: What's the spin tomorrow? "What's wrong with Missouri?" I'd have said anything less than 60% they could blow off, but 3 to 1 sounds an awful lot like what we've maintained for months is the general public reaction to Obamacare.
