SPOKANE COUNTY – Measure one in Spokane County saw heavy opposition at the voting polls on Nov. 7 and initially looks to have failed with the first count.

34,024 or 37.90 % of votes went to support the measure, whereas 57,633 or 62.84 % voted against it.

The measure was the county’s attempt at a law and justice initiative that would increase sales tax 0.2 % for new products.
