The 36-year-old Marquette University graduate and current University student said he thinks he’s going to win the November general election with student support and because of his kin ship with Oregon voters. Alevi zos, who has not run for office before, said he will attract a ma jority of the vote because he has no political affiliation and be cause the state has already voted to legalize physician-assisted sui cide and medical marijuana. “The only party I’m going to have is when I win,” Alevizos said. One of the organizers, local writer and publisher Kris Mille gan, suggested that drugs be regu lated by the government. With the situation as it is, he said, not only does prohibition not work, but it also creates a black market. “The main message here is that things need to change,” Millegan said in a telephone interview. “We need to do something differ ent. The vice-cop model doesn’t work.” Drugs such as marijuana, co caine and opium sell for higher values than gold, he said.

Nobody gets hurt.” Jonathan Gutstadt Hemp Education Network Jonathan Gutstadt, office man ager of the student group Hemp Education Network, said hemp should be legalized because it would stimulate the Oregon economy, because incarcerating offenders is a waste of taxpayers’ money and because it is a consti tutional right. “We’re putting people in jail for a victimless crime,” said Gut stadt, a University alumnus, in a telephone interview. “Nobody gets hurt.” According to the Centers for Dis ease Control and Prevention, the chronic effects of marijuana use in clude short-term memory impair ment, impaired immune respons es, impaired lung functioning, cancer and other lung diseases, de creased sperm count and interfer ence with ovulation.
