State Sen. Curtis Olafson, Edinburg, N.D., letter: Very few legislators support Measure 2

I think it is very telling that, to the best of my knowledge, there is only one member of the Legislature out of 141 who publicly supports Measure 2. Legislators certainly don’t know everything, but their lack of support speaks volumes about this far-reaching proposal.

Christopher Dodson, Bismarck, letter: Measure 3 simply restores pre-1990 standard

Minnesota uses the same standard as Measure 3. It has not clogged the courts or led to abuses in Minnesota, and there is no reason to conclude it would do so here.
