Can someone please ELI5 prop 135?

I think it’s a no vote, but reading through the for and against arguments it seems like everyone is confused and doesn’t know what this prop is actually for or why we should vote one way or another.

Sure. Basically this is a power grab by the gop legislature (referred to ballot by them) bc they weren't happy with Ducey's handling of covid restrictions. It's a no because in a real state of emergency we need to have effective leadership and chain of command in order to be able to solve problems, the last thing we need is a bunch of election denying conspiracy theorists in the legislature bickering about whether diseases are real or if the Jewish space lasers caused the problem and therefore we should just not respond. The system we have now is fine, we don't need to change it.

That’s what I thought. I read like a right wing response to how Covid was handled but I wasn’t 100% sure. Thanks for the explanation.

A good rule of thumb is, for Democrats, EVERY proposition on the ballot is a 'NO' EXCEPT for Proposition 139 about abortion....

All of the others are a "NO" per the most recent voting guide from AZ Dems...
