Bradley, William. "Jerry Brown: Gearing Up a Campaign at Last?" The Huffington Post. thehuffingtonpost.com, 22 Sept. 2012. Web. 24 Sept. 2012.

This article was written by Bradley William and featured in The Huffington Post. This article was a good source because it explained in lamence terms the condition of proposition 30 and the effects it would have on people like me, while also providing video clips and information on other relating propositions. This article would be considered bias, because there was a sense of disproval on a proposition that would act as an "achilles heel" to the low income voter. He then goes on to explain how Jerry Brown will need to convince low income voters to "sacrifice for the greater good" in order for Proposition 30 to pass. Jerry Brown's past mostly being on the republican side of California's elections, this whole thing may be a move towards re- election.

York, Anthony. "PolitiCal." Business Group Endorses Proposition 30 Tax Measure. Los Angeles Times, 24 Sept. 2012. Web. 24 Sept. 2012.

This article was a very short, too the point, easy to understand source by Anthony York in The Los Angeles Times. The articles describes a boost in Jerry Browns campaign when Proposition 30 became supported by a Bay Area Bussiness group. They describe this as a change after he lost substantial support when he abandoned his plan of extending a series of tax hikes set up by Arnold Shwarznegger. Now many of the groups that once supported brown remain neutral. This Bay Area Bussiness group plans on accepting the new financial burden in hope for California.
