Ballot
measures:
Initiatives
591
Yes. Keeps reasonable background checks. Criminals are prohibited from owning
guns and it is illegal to sell to them. Enforcement of the current laws is the
issue.
594
No. Gun show purchases are already subject to background checks as only members
can buy and to become a member you need a background check. Not necessary and
easy to abuse. Increased state spending $175-200 thousand, local ?
1351
No the measure does not provide funding, requires an increase of $4.7 billion,
and doesn’t require the school districts to actually use the extra funds on
smaller class size.
Advisory votes
6505
Maintain. Some voted against it perhaps because they are against marijuana
being legal. I agree, but since it is let it pay for some of the problems it
causes.
1287
Repealed This raises taxes and makes the tribes keep book for a rather small
increase in state revenue.
