Proposition 320: School District Budgets
Arizona
My vote power
Above average
Election date

How do we calculate my vote power?
What determines the vote power rating for ballot measures: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. You have more power in ballot measures because you vote directly on the policy.
Representation: Average · 50 out of 100
This district covers a large share of its state, so each vote carries about average weight — like a vote in a statewide race. About 7,378,838 people live here.
Show the representation math
score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(7,378,838 ÷ 7,378,838) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50, measured against a statewide vote in AZ (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)
Average representation + a direct vote on the policy → My vote power: Above average.
Ballot Measure
Large school districts and districts in big counties would have to spend at least 60% of their operating money on classroom teaching. Districts that fall short would lose 25% of their state Classroom Site Fund money each year; the measure adds no tax.
