[email protected]. Introduction The California Initiative Review (CIR) is a non-partisan, objective publication of independent analyses of California statewide ballot initiatives. The CIR is a publication of the Pacific McGeorge Capital Center for Public Law and Policy and is prepared before every statewide election. Each CIR covers all measures qualified for the next statewide ballot, and also contains reports on topics related to initiatives, elections, or campaigns. This edition covers the six statewide ballot measures that will appear on the November 4, 2014 ballot, as well as presents reports on Proposition 49, which was removed from the ballot, Measure L, a history of Three Strikes and the initiative process, and comparative initiative law. The CIR is written and edited by law students enrolled in the California Initiative Seminar course at University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law. This fall, 20 students were enrolled in the seminar.
