I didn't receive it, though I'm neither faculty nor staff.  Anyway, I have
three problems with it:

1.  It seems to me inappropriate for resources available solely to certain
internal elements of the University to be used for political stumping of any
sort.
2.  Endorsement of particular political views by the University is contrary
to the open forum of debate required for any academic institution (not to
mention that endorsement by the University seems to indicate that all
members of the University community are in agreement, which I can guarantee
you they are not).
3.  This e-mail reads like a television ad.  I mean, come on, we're all
smart people here.  We can make an objective assessment of Issue 1's merits
without having it beaten into our brains with nearly every single paragraph
starting with the phrase "Issue 1".
