Incompetency Blocks Anti-Crime Ballot Measure:  A law-enforcement supported ballot measure to modestly roll back some of California's sentencing reforms (read sentencing reductions) has failed to qualify for the 2018 ballot.  The reason was not that the proponents failed to gather enough signatures...they submitted over 570,000 when only 365,880 were required.  It was not because they failed to meet the deadline for turning them in.  As Michele Hanisee, President of the Association of Los Angeles District Attorneys reports, it was because the Registrar of Voters in several counties failed to count the signatures by the state deadline.  How is it that the Registrar for Los Angeles County could verify 176,000 in a few days, while 13 smaller counties including San Diego, Ventura, Contra Costa and San Joaquin could not?  What happens now?  The "Reducing Crime and Keeping California Safe Act" will appear on the 2020 ballot, treating law abiding Californians to two more years of revolving door sentencing for thousands for serious criminals, most of whom cannot even be DNA tested under current law.
