Initiative results looking good
In state-wide results for Washington initiative measures, both I-933 (so-called property rights) and I-920 (estate tax repeal) are going down to defeat.
I-920 is getting creamed with almost a 60% no vote. I-933 is faring better, but still suffers from nearly a 57% no vote.
I-937, renewable energy, is narrowly passing with 51%.
It's hard to argue with results like these. It goes to show that if the voters are informed about the truth of measures, they will display a lot of common sense. I-933 in particular would have been a disaster.
And the defeat that is being handed the newspaper owners who backed I-920 is pretty great as well.
