Conservatives Divided On 3 State Questions

SoonerPolitics.org provides coverage of both camps' messages

  Of the several state questions being decided in next month's election, three are drawing both criticism and applause from various conservative groups.
​   Conservatives are generally supporting measures of religious tolerance and the constitutionality of a death penalty. But specifying regulatory limits on agriculture has proven contentious to many groups. So have measures of marketing some liquor products or how seriously should we treat simple possession of some drugs.

  On state question 777, the editorial board of SoonerPolitics.org has been rather disappointed in the failures of both camps. The pro side has not addressed the concerns of metro area voters whose only direct concern is safe drinking water. The con side has developed narratives of apocalyptic consequences which the plain language of the initiative come nowhere near resembling.
  On 780& 792, we have two strong political forces divided. The "moral majority" Republicans oppose any softening of our prohibition policies. The "liberty" Republicans believe personal consumption is a personal decision and govt.should focus only on threats to public safety and child exploitation. SQ780 does not legalize possession, but does reduce it to a misdemeanor (unless distribution charges are filed).
