Initiative Measure No. 872

 

“Initiative Measure No. 872 concerns elections for partisan offices.

This measure would allow voters to select among all candidates

“Initiative Measure No. 884 concerns dedicating funds designated for educational purposes. This measure would create an education trust fund for smaller classes, extended learning programs, certain salary increases, preschool access, and expanded college enrollments and scholarships, funded by increasing retail sales tax by 1%.”

 

                           Yes                                                                                                              1,102,996

“Initiative Measure No. 892 concerns authorizing additional “electronic scratch ticket machines” to reduce property taxes.

This measure would authorize licensed non-tribal gambling establishments to operate the same type and number of

machines as tribal governments, with a portion of tax revenue generated used to reduce state property taxes.”

Referendum Measure No. 55

 

“The legislature passed Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2295 (ESSHB 2295) concerning charter public schools. This bill would authorize charter public schools and would set conditions

on operations. Charter schools would be operated by qualified nonprofit corporations, under contracts with local education

boards, and allocated certain public funds.”

public participation and enforcement through citizen lawsuits.”

 

                           Yes                                                                                                              1,812,581
