THE ITEM VETO IN STATE COURTS Richard Briffault * Contemporary debates about state constitutional law have concentrated on the role of state constitutions in the protection of individual rights and have paid less attention to the state constitutional law of government structure.' This is ironic since the emergence of a state jurisprudence of individual rights has been hampered by the similarity of the texts of the state and federal constitutional provisions concerning individual rights, whereas many state constitutional pro- visions dealing with government structure have no federal analogues, and thus state jurisprudence in this area is free to develop outside the dominating shadow of the Federal Constitution and the federal courts. Moreover, as the "laborato- ries of democracy" metaphor suggests, the study of the structural features of state constitutions can enable us to consider alternative means of organizing rep- resentative democratic governments, assess the efficacy of different mechanisms for governing, and illuminate the implications and consequences of aspects of the federal government's structure that we ordinarily take for granted.

  • 2010 Election Results
    National Lieutenant Governors Association PRESS ADVISORY November 4, 2010 (updated 12 -14-10) Contact: NLGA Director Julia Hurst (859) 283-1400 ADVISORY ON SPLIT PARTY GOVERNOR / LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR SERVICE & ADVISORY ON COMPOSITION OF LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR- ELECT CLASS The nation will have twenty-six (26) new seconds-in-command across the states this year/in early 2011, as follows: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, and Wisconsin. The territory of Guam also elected a new lieutenant governor. The following analysis includes the fifty known lieutenant governors / officials first in line of gubernatorial succession (as of December 14, 2010), who will be inaugurated through December of 2010 and January of 2011. Some lieutenant governors are elected to office in the general election on a ticket with the governor while others are elected independently of the governor in the general election. For this reason and sometimes due to other circumstance, a governor and lieutenant governor (or the official first in line of succession) may be of different parties. (see “Method of Election” on NLGA web site at www.nlga.us) . As of December 14, 2010, six states are slated to have a governor and lieutenant governor (or official first in line of succession) of opposite parties and one state with an official holding both positions. The states are as follows: Arkansas (D/R), Missouri (D/R), Montana (D/R), New Hampshire (D/R)*, Rhode Island (I/D), and Vermont (D/R).

  • Lessons from the Deukmejian Era for Contemporary California State Budgeting
    FROM JERRY­RIGGED TO PETERED OUT: LESSONS FROM THE DEUKMEJIAN ERA FOR CONTEMPORARY CALIFORNIA STATE BUDGETING Daniel J.B. Mitchell, UCLA Ho­Su Wu Professor of Management and Public Policy The new governor took office in the midst of a major state budget crisis. At the time he took office, it was unclear that state could pay its bills if drastic action were not taken. Yet the incoming governor was committed to a no­tax­increase program. Through borrowing, the state managed to surmount its budget crisis. As the economy recovered and resulting tax revenue flowed in, it even was able to engage in major construction projects. When he stood for re­ election, the governor was overwhelmingly returned to office for a second term. Sadly, however, the economy began to slow during that second term. Fears mounted that the state could face a renewed budget crisis. This description may seem to depict the career to date of Arnold Schwarzenegger. He inherited a budget crisis from Gray Davis who he replaced in the 2003 recall. But the introductory vignette actually refers to the story of George Deukmejian (“Duke”) who was first elected in 1982, inheriting a budget crisis from Jerry Brown. (Deukmejian’s construction projects leaned towards prisons for most of his terms in office, needed as state sentencing laws tightened, rather than the roads and other infrastructure pushed by Schwarzenegger.) And as it turned out, the economic downturn that began to take shape towards the end of Deukmejian’s second term indeed did produce a major budget crisis, a legacy he left for his successor, Pete Wilson.
