Prop Talk LIVE!

The 2026 Ballot Measures are a morass of difficult to parse language and hard to comprehend motivations. Margin of Victory, Equality Arizona, and the Will of the People campaign are here to help in PROP TALK, a public discussion of the proposition on the November 2026 Ballot. In this LIVE RECORDED panel discussion, Spencer and Dr. H. L. T. Quan sit down with community leaders and subject matter experts (including our own, Michael Soto) to dive into these opaque measures and bring some clarity. The members of the Will of the People coalition urge a "No" vote on Props 142, 144, 318, and 320. While Equality Arizona's published 2026 Voter Guide recommends a "No" vote on all eight measures. Together we build on the discussion of Ep. 3 with experts adding their own reasoning for each one, measure by measure. Special thanks to Dr H. L. T. Quan, Dr. Brian Dille, Lupe Castro, Michael Soto, Progress Arizona, Save our Schools, Arizonans for a Quality Education, and First Church UCC in Phoenix for making this community event possible.
