Q&A with Mark Baldassare, Public Policy Institute of California
...in which he says the following:

"I think that if we don't close the achievement gap in this state, then we are creating a society in which we will have the rich and the poor, the well-off, the people who have advantages and the people who don't, the people who have good jobs and the people who don't, people who depend upon public institutions for their support, and people who can go to private institutions."

And of course that's why people who agree with Dr. Baldassare, head of research at the PPIC, voted against vouchers and for easier school bond funding. But CID owners disproportionately voted the other way, according to the PPIC study.
