Land use tops state ballot issues
The Washington Times
"The biggest issue this year is definitely property rights and land use," and voters in at least 11 states will consider measures that would bar governments from taking private property for another private use, said Jennie Drage Bowser, a policy analyst for the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), which tracks ballot questions across the country.
The 11 states where voters will decide on property-rights measures are Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon and South Carolina, said Larry Morandi, NCSL's group director for environment, energy and transportation.
