Paul Allen should worry more about his O line than gun owners and hunters.

When I was researching before voting(crazy I know, right) this is what popped up.progressive voters guide. It tells these free thinkers just how to vote! Easy.

So dis-heartening to continually be reminded just how many uninformed voters there are in this state  :(

I had read earlier that for my county only about 20% of ballots had been received by today, not sure how many more would trickle in over the course of the day.

The wording and advertising were deviously deceptive.  It is right out of the "progressive" play book, smoke and mirrors.  There are already laws governing the trafficking of endangered animals and their parts.  This makes it easy for any species to be classified, hunter's rights stripped and land locked up.  This will be a huge kick in the junk for hunters, just wait and see.

Obviously I voted no, but saw no chance of this not passing. I'm very surprised that the guys who fully support baiting of deer and elk weren't very vocal about this. About a month ago when I took some time to read the initiative, I noticed some wording that appeared to me to make it illegal to bait deer or elk if this passed..... :dunno: Hopefully I read into it wrong, as that'd really be a slap to get baiting banned by slipping it in this initiative.

Lack of organization and importantly, funding. Paul Allen easily raises $2M FOR this initiative while those of us that oppose it cross our fingers and hope it won't pass. C'mon people - especially in this state? Psssh.
