Ballot Measure l seemed to be a di
v tiling ground between llostu ka and
State Senator t uattan kerans
llostu ka said his biggest objection to
annual Legislative sessions would be
that power would be taken away from
Politics
the people
"I've been against Measure t <U)(I the
reason is th.it «m .umii.il session ami a
full time Legislature will be playing
games with the people rather than (be
mg) out of session when there is more
established ties to the tommunity. he
said
l lie best example of this is in ( all
fornia where the\ (legislators) are so
tied with the Legislature that the people
an being i un b\ the unit I lostu ka
added
Ker.ins said although the House usu
ally oiu'.in.ites measures sm h e* Me,is
me 5 and then is defeated m the Senate
Measure \ < nine from the Senate origi
nallv and was then approved b\ both
houses
When the early returns rndirated that
Ballot Measure .t would be headed t*>
defeat K era ns was surprised
"Th.it this i an go down is a rnajoi
shot k to me based on the stlength of the
vote |in the Legislature) he said
However Kerans said il the measure

It
It'll he on the hallo! again he said
