Ballot measure sources

Hello all. Postman here.

It was great to meet you this morning. I hope everyone got an overview of the class. I promise there will be more details as we go along.

Here are some sources for those of you who are going to do stories about ballot measures.

Initiatvive 960
Here is the text of the initiative on the Secretary of State's site. (A good place to start any research on voting, initiatives, etc.)
The yes campaign will likely only be Tim Eyman's organization, Permanent Offense. I can also give you Eyman's telephone number if you need to reach him.
I have not yet seen an organized and funded opposition. But there is a small grassroots group,
Permanet Defense which will write a lot in opposition to the initiative. They can provide a spokesman as well.
