Question 3, which would have made greyhound racing illegal, was rejected by voters, according to the Associated Press' projections. Incomplete returns showed the question trailing by a narrow margin.
Question 8, which would have shifted penalties for drug use toward treatment solutions, was defeated by a small margin. The measure would have used money from drug-related property forfeitures for treatment programs.
State voters also approved by wide margins the two state constitutional amendments that were put on the ballot by the state legislature for final approval. One amendment will mean the state's congressional districts will be redrawn for the 2002 election. The other will make jailed felons ineligible to vote. Neither amendment was particularly controversial, and no official opposition was organized on these two issues.
