The big news from Election Day, aside from the party shift in Congress, is the
“Response to Kelo,” i.e., the ballot initiatives seeking to curb eminent domain. According to the Castle Coalition, a property rights group, the results are as follows:
YES:
Arizona: 65% to 35%
Florida: 70% to 30%
Georgia: 80% to 20%
Louisiana: Passed in September
Michigan: 80% to 20%
Nevada: 65% to 35%
New Hampshire: 85% to 15%
North Dakota: 65% to 35%
Oregon: 65% to 35%
South Carolina: 85% to 15%

NO:
California: 45% to 55%
Idaho: 25% to 75%
The impact of these initiatives will take months, and probably years, to sort out. But for the moment, it is clear that the “Rage of Kelo” remains burning in the minds of many Americans.
