Maybe this is not only "one that probably shouldn’t be handled at the ballot box, given how much uncertainty there is around it,” but one in which government should have no role whatsoever. Why should there be a ballot issue about what energy provider a certain business chooses to use? Isn't anti-trust a supposed role of government? Then of course competition should be allowed. The monopoly that's evolved is because of government policies in the first place. Take away the protections around NV Energy. allow competition, and allow the natural evolutionary processes of the marketplace to work, instead of pretending who burns what energy from whom can be "intelligently designed."
This is about as pure an example of crony crapitolism as exists. A critical infrastructure decision will be decided at the ballot box, regardless of how inefficient that decision is, or what unintended consequences it may unleash. The so-called "leaders" have passed the buck to voters who have no frikkin clue what the right decision should be.
And hundreds of millions of dollars will be wasted in the process.
Sheer idiocy.
