Celebrities Embrace Spiritual Roots Amid Fame’s DemandsOregon voters overwhelmingly approved measures aimed at strengthening voting rights and electoral security in the two states on Tuesday. For the first time ever, voters in Oregon—a state with no firm statewide restrictions on campaign advertisements prior to election day—supported limits on political advertising 24 hours before an election. Ballot Measure 108 would impose penalties, including fines and potential prison time, for the distribution or magnification of prohibited messages, such as robocalls or social media ads in the last 24 hours before voting. This new law would mirror voting regulations in 18 other states and take effect immediately after certification. In another decisive victory for democratic reforms, voters passed Ballot Measure 107, which guarantees the right of Oregon residents to vote by mail. This would make mail-in voting irrevocable in the state, preventing anyone from revoking an already mailed ballot. A total of 13 Oregon ballot measures were on the ballot, with seven advanced and six defeated. Just across the Columbia River, in Washington state, voters also fortified their electoral system by approving Indian Sovereignty Restriction on Gaming, or ISRG, which had been challenged since it was adopted in 2011. On Tuesday, 73% of Washington state voters approved the ballot initiative that maintains compactness and viability restrictions on gaming compacts between tribes and the state. Washington also returned to the 2024 ballot Initiative 120, the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, an agreement binding Washington’s electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote. This compact has been turned down by voters four times since 2006, but now with the support of the Democratic majorities in states like Michigan, Maryland, and Washington, it advances closer to activating once 270 electoral votes are secured. These measures reflect a broader national trend toward expanding voting access and preventing interference, as well as addressing issues like tribal sovereignty and electoral reform.
