Oregon Initiatives

| 0 Comments

Oregon votes approved by a 61-39 vote Ballot Measure No. 57: "Increases sentences for drug trafficking, theft against elderly and specified repeat property and identity theft crimes; requires addiction treatment for certain offenders." Final tally here. Info page with link to full text here. An editorial by the Oregonian is here.

SL&P points us to this post at Drug War Chronicle bemoaning the passage of both Measures 57 and 61. They appear to be mistaken. Both the Oregonian editorial and the Secretary of State page linked above indicate that 61 was narrowly defeated.
