"... historical probability of 69% for ballot proposals passing in Texas. I assume it is similar for other states."

Not at all sure that that stat is necessarily useful as far as predicting things.

I know that --- when big bonding proposals... say, school bonds for instance --- were very *recently* passed in an area, the odds of approving a new set of bonds in the subsequent election cycle goes WAY down.
