HELP- Recomended voting; Initiatives, HJR, Prop & NP court candidates?

Or is there a comprehensive and reliable union site we can count on as having done the research on these people?
Seems that the liberal judges and initiative recommendations should be in my inbox every single day. Here's what I've found;
WASH-PIRG;
I-933 -NO
I-937 -NO

also
I-920 -NO

I check to see who prepared the arguments "for" and who prepared the arguments "against." Sometimes that's helpful.

btw I agree with you on 933 and 920. Jury is still out on 937 but I'm leaning "yes."

for I-937 & 933

I look at the supporters in the voters' pamphlet too if it gets that time squeezed for me. Follow the money and you've got the motives behind something.

Initiative 920--NO. Funding for schools, not Martin Selig’s estate: http://www.NOon920.org/

Initiative 933--NO. It you want other people to obey the laws that protect your property values, you ought to obey those laws yourself: http://www.noon933.org/

Initiative 937--YES. Washington’s renewable energy initiative—start using more of tomorrow’s energy sources today http://www.yeson937.org/

On Nov. 7, Washington state has a chance to make a little history. If approved by the voters, Initiative 937 (I-937) will accelerate Washington’s transition to clean, efficient, renewable energy, help solve global warming, protect and preserve our remaining wilderness, and achieve real and lasting energy independence.

I-937 would achieve these lofty goals by requiring the state’s utilities to get 15 percent of their electricity from clean sources, like wind and solar, by 2020. The initiative would also require utilities to provide more resources for energy efficiency and conservation programs.

I get WASH-PIRG emails regularly and after watching Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" I really appreciate their work. I often do what they request to support them.

Hydro power is the most reliable and clean power we can have here. Wind is not reliable, solar is REALLY not reliable, in the northwest.

With the projects in the works we already are close to hitting those goals in the upcoming years. The problem with I-937 is that if you mandate it you end up costing the taxpayers more by pushing the percentage before the technology is ready.

This is a copy of laws passed around the country where they get their power from coal and fossil fuels. Those areas need the boost, we don't. All we are doing is replacing one form of clean power with another form.

There are some areas where they have constant wind all the time, this isn't one of them.

Hey, where did you go? :D

Solar would be good for eastern WA. Wind is reliable in many places as there is wind often in many places. Every bit helps in the long run.

all seem pretty dang windy to me!


I saw Gore's film, "An Inconvenient Truth" and the knowledge that the environment was very important turned to a 4-alarm emergency in my mind. Without life on earth, there is no life anywhere, therefore no jobs and no X-box.

920-no. Schools need the money more than people inheriting $2million+ estates.
933-no. Idea is good but the initiative is poorly written and bad.
937-yes. Will cost the state minimal, will cost us a little bit more in energy costs but overall will help energy for the future.
