[quote=Anonymous]Simpler for who? Maybe check to see what languages are associated with the highest literacy rates in the County. My guess is that they are English followed by Spanish. Where did you get the idea that you have an adult level reading proficiency to be a citizen? Genuine question. Why do you think an English-only ballot would be”simpler for all?” I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that this might not be true for at least some of the people whose first language and whose strongest reading skills are in Spanish.
