UPDATED:UPDATED:UPDATED Billionaire effort to strip the initiatives off the ballot.
It would seem that a leftist group of billionaires, including Nick Hanauer, Bill Gates and Steve Balmer, funded 2 separate lawsuits against the Washington Secretary of State to have the Lets Go Washington initiatives taken off the ballot this November.
it would seem that the suits blasted through from a superior court to the court of appeals and then to the Supreme Court without public notice and without notifying Let's Go Washington, the organization behind the initiatives.
If a reporter researching another case and stumbling across THIS case hadn't found out, and then called Brian Heywood, who organized and funded the LGW effort to ask for comment, they NEVER WOULD HAVE KNOWN until it was over.
The claims were, apparently, that the process used to determine signature validity was "flawed."
The Court, for their part, and stunningly enough, voted unanimously to throw out both lawsuits, and the measures will remain on the ballot.
It is unknown how this could have been kept so quiet beyond the likelihood that @letsgowa was not a party to the suit, or why neither Hobbs or Sideshow never said anything... even though we all know the most dangerous place on earth is the space between Sideshow and social media.
But we can guess.
The measures are I-2066, stopping the natural gas ban, I-2109 repealing the capitol gains tax, I-2117, ending the hidden gas tax AND I-2124, opting out of the state's mandatory state-run long term health care coverage act.
This is an absolute example of leftist corruption.
This apparently just broke at 7:00 pm tonite (Friday).
