From the Paper:

"This year's election includes the controversial issue of Proposition 34, limits and disclosures on campaign spending and contributions. Currently, there is no limit on campaign contributions and spending in California. Proposition 208, initiating strict limits on campaign contributions and spending, was passed by voters in 1996, but was not put into effect because legal issues tied it up in court (the proposition was challenged on the grounds that its limits were unreasonably low compared to the cost of running for office in California). Proposition 34 attempts to accomplish what Proposition 208 of 1996 could not. As did Proposition 208, it intends to limit campaign contributions and loans to state candidates and political parties, but to higher levels than what Proposition 208 designated. It also attempts to provide voluntary spending limits, expand public disclosure requirements and increase penalties."
