Wilhelms v. Rosenblum

Summary

The Oregon Supreme Court held that the certified ballot title for Initiative Petition 9 does not substantially comply with ORS 250.035’s requirements for the caption, the “yes” result statement, and the summary, and therefore referred the title to the Attorney General for modification. The decision was based on the title’s failure to clearly describe the measure’s major effects on campaign‑finance reporting and political‑advertising disclosure.
