Two more victims rights initiatives proposed

Secretary of State Debra Bowen's office reported Tuesday that two new measures designed to deal with victims rights _ by tightening probation requirements as well as the right to be released pending trial _ are in circulation for the November election.
Both measures will require more than 695,000 signatures to qualify and become the fourth and fifth measures dealing with victim rights that are in circulation in moves seen as trying to motivate the Republican base to turn out this fall.
Another measure, eliminating domestic partnership laws, failed to qualify for the ballot.
So far, there are 55 measures in circulation for November.
