Dropping the hurdle to 55% didn’t necessarily make it easier – it just changed the rules.

When Proposition 39 passed in 2000, school districts around the State of California breathed a sigh of relief. After all, how could moving from 66.7% to 55% be anything but good news?

Then came reality. No doubt about it, Prop 39 made winning a bond election easier. But the devil is in the details, and overnight, districts had to confront an uncharted landscape of full-ballot texts, citizen oversight committees, and taxrate limitations.

Dale Scott & Company ran the first Prop 39 election in the State — a $199 million victory for the Fresno Unified School District approved by 67% of the voters in March 2001.

Since that date, we have grown into the most successful Proposition 39 bond advisor in the State. Together with our affiliate firm 8th Floor Campaigns, we’ve won 21 out of our last 22 Proposition 39 bond campaigns for a total funding amount of over $3 billion.
