The Oregonian reports. The short of it: sex offenders are bad, parks are good, pot is bad, casinos are bad.
Measures 73 and 76 appear to have adequate support for passage, with about 60% of poll respondents indicating support. Measure 73 imposes longer sentences for repeat sex offenders (and drunk drivers(!)). Measure 76 authorizes the continued use of lottery money for parks.
Measures 74 and 75 appear to be headed for defeat. Measure 74 would legalize medical marijuana dispensaries. Measure 75 would allow a casino to be built in Multnomah County.
Measure 73 has me curious: given the single subject rule, why is a law that increases sentences for sex offenders and drunk drivers allowed on the same measure. Expect a challenge if this passes.
