Oregonian: "Oregon lawmakers make further move to blunt Mannix crime measure"
From The Oregonian, February 21, 2008
Over Republican objections, the Oregon House took another step Thursday toward putting a measure on the November ballot to blunt a more stringent crime-fighting initiative by GOP activist Kevin Mannix.In Thursday's debate, Republicans said Democrats shouldn't try to write their own custom ballot title for the Legislature's version but should leave it to a neutral source — the state attorney general's office.
Democratic Rep. Greg Macpherson of Lake Oswego defended the Legislature's ballot title, saying it's "simple and understandable." Anyone who doesn't like the title can challenge it in court, Macpherson said.
