Good point on why to vote yes on minimum wage. You are so right that so much automation (meat packing industry comes to mind), is not done due to low wage labor being available. Costco spent $450 million on automating their chicken plant, which is a capital cost most meat packers won’t do.

Automation will lead to UBI, which will also destroy economic arguments in favor of mass immigration.

It's hilarious how they've kindly collated the propositions into ones proposed by the state legislature (1-6) and then the ones people leaving Walmart and Target signed on for (the 30s). The housing ones have been getting a lot of action on Roku and Pluto TV ads, and of course the large fine print shows the Democratic Party, the teachers unions, and other special interests.

At least recriminalizing some crimes made it through the gauntlet😂.
