Sadly, California's Prop 5, the Nonviolent Offender Rehabilitation Act, lost yesterday, felled by a massive last-minute infusion of cash by California's prison guard union in opposition. Also by the scandalous opposition by several former governors and other unenlightened pols. Good try by our friends the organizers, though, they were fighting to the end. Maybe next time. On the bright side, Sensible Fayetteville passed a lowest priority marijuana enforcement initiative in Arkansas, one more victory to add to those already mentioned here last night. I'm sure Scott will be writing more later, and of course look for Friday's Chronicle to read Phil's comprehensive post-election drug policy reporting.
