An incomplete news wire was sent on Wednesday. This mistake was due to our publisher eating at his desk (again). He dropped his sandwich on the keyboard and it sent the errant news wire, unfinished and a day early. Put it in the trash can! To assist in the matter, we would like to give you a mini AccountingWEB trash can. The first 50 to respond will receive this beauty! Fifty winners will be revealed on AccountingWEB.com next week. Good luck!

After choosing their candidates on November 7, voters will check yes or no on ballot propositions that, along with more familiar bond issue proposals, would increase the minimum wage, support property rights, prohibit same sex marriage, and limit tax increases. While Taxpayer Bill of Rights (TABOR) proposals that put caps on future spending have received national attention, proposals that will affect property taxes and increases in personal exemptions are much more popular this year.

Among the states having ballot measures that could affect taxes are:
- Arizona
- California
- Colorado
- Florida
- Georgia
- Maine
- Michigan
- Montana
- Nebraska
- Nevada
- North Carolina
- Oklahoma
- Oregon
