Choices on THE BALLOT tomorrow
Voters in Douglas County will make choices for national and local issues and campaigns on Election Day. Six races will be decided: one for U.S. Senator, one for U.S. Representative, one for Governor, and four for Congressman on the ballot; two Kansas Constitutional amendment questions, a "liquor-by-the-drink" resolution and a bond vote for Douglas County public schools.
REFERENDUMS
Resolution no. 92-32 "Liquor-by-the-drink"
Shail the sale of alcoholic liquor by the individual drink in Douglas County be allowed in public places without a requirement that any portion of their gross receipts be from sales of food? Businesses would either have to make 30 percent of their income taxes on all private clubs, if YOU VOTE YES; the private club laws in Douglas County would be removed.
Special bond vote for Unified School District No. 497
"Bonds for classrooms"
Shall Unified School District No. 497, Douglas County, State of Kansas, issue school district general obligation bonds in an amount not exceeding $29,900,000, which is the estimated total cost, to pay for improvements? **IF YOU VOTE NO:** The bonds would not be issued. Repairs and additions to elementary, junior high and high schools would not be made. **IF YOU VOTE NO:** The school district would issue the bonds, and additional classrooms and equipment would be purchased for the schools with the money. Taxes would be used to finance the bonds; the owner of a $60,000 home would pay about $60 each year for the classroom improvements.
Kansas Constitutional Amendment Question No. 1
"System of taxation; classification; exemption"
Shall Section 1 of Article 11 of the constitution of the state of Kansas be amended?

Kansas Constitutional Amendment Question No. 2 "The victim's rights amendment"
Shall Section 1, Article 15 of the constitution of the state of Kansas be amended by adding a new section? IF YOU VOTE NO: The current practice where victims of crime are provided certain statutory rights but are guaranteed those rights in the constitution would continue. IF YOU VOTE YES: The state constitution would be amended to guarantee certain basic rights, such as the right to be informed and present at public hearings, for victims of crime as long as such rights do not interfere with the rights of the accused.
