I think part of the problem is that people are voting without reading. 
I didn't have time to read the prop when it was up for voting, so I 
voted against. Other people, though, also seem not to have read it 
carefully; and enough of them voted for it that it passed.

If we just took the time to examine things before voting for them, 
these problems wouldn't occur.
