Initiative plans face final debates today

Delegates to the Constitutional Convention begin their final debate today on the issues of initiative, referendum and recall. Delegates speculated that mem­bers of the majority who voted with ’independents ” and Republicans to pass the open primary proposal on an initial reading Tuesday were being asked to reconsider their vote when the issue comes up again today. One version to be introduced today by delegate Kekoa Kaapu would allow citizens to initiate an ’advisory” change in the law.
