What do we do if Prop 37 doesn't pass: a back-up plan

By now, everyone knows that "yes" on Prop 37 means that we want GMO 
foods to be labeled. But many big chemical and agri businesses are 
putting tons of money into defeating this common sense legislation. 
Hopefully, we will be celebrating its passage next week, but what if it 
looses? What then? Come here Anna Marie Carter's back-up plan, should 
Prop 37 fail at the polls.
