[Capr-announce] I-933

[Inez Somerville Petersen]

I do not agree that we can't collect signatures on Wash State property.  

There is case law that concerns the Washington State Ferries.  Signature 
gatherers were at work in those lines of cars.  This was challenged in 
court and the signature gatherers won.

Same principle, different Washington State Property.  

I am several computers down the road from when I had this newspaper 
article on my computer.  But maybe someone else remembers it, Tim Eyman, 
maybe.
