Initiative/Referendum solution to Washington State Law?
Many of the news stories linked in this forum regarding the WA ban on online gambling have made mention of the law not being overturned except for a 60% supermajority of both houses of the state legislature (the corrupt idiots who put this together in the first place).
My question- is an initiative or referendum possible? The info about filing is here- http://www.secstate.wa.gov/elections...2005-2008.pdf. IANAL, so I don't know the intricacies or the law or how this process works. Can anyone elaborate? I have also emailed the PPA to see if they have any plans in the works. If they don't, I want my $20 back!! |

Apparently Dori Monsun (sic) on KIRO radio today was talking about the new poker legislation. According to him, only a referendum could stop this. Sources tell me he also stated the law would be (gulp) RETROACTIVE. But I'm sure they would have a ton of legal problems with snooping around like this.
you can probably hear Dori's show if you go to KIRO's radio website. |

Dori has talked about it the past 3 days, actually. He is really worked up about it. Hopefully the exposure will get everyone outraged enough to legalize it once and for all.
