Ballot sabotage

The Florida Teachers Union and friends sued the state on Friday to remove pro-voucher proposals from the November ballot, including a provision designed to restore, you guessed it, the Opportunity Scholarship Program, which was ruled unconstitutional in 2006 (D.C.’s version of the program may face a similar fate). The conspiracy theorists hold that the amendments are “part of a well-organized, well-financed campaign to outsource public schools” (yawn). Others believe that the issue needs to be decided by the voters as opposed to the union (or the courts)—a novel idea indeed.
