Proposition C: Missouri’s Rejection of Obamacare

In a majority vote during Tuesday’s primary elections, the voters of Missouri chose to invalidate a mandate of the new health care bill which presses for individuals without healthcare to purchase healthcare.  The overwhelming 71% support of this referendum, Proposition C, was the first of its kind to be passed before the 2014 law goes into effect.   Due to alot of uncertainty with the new healthcare bill, there will likely be many court decisions on how the bill will be interpreted and if states will be able to pass such measures.  We will have to simply sit back and see how things weigh out.
