Liquor on Ballot Could Cost Kansas Taxpayers
Secretary of State Jack Brier says placing the liquor in restaurants question on the November ballot will cost at least 20 000 dollars. Forty five of 105 counties qualified to vote under a new law allowing such sales where restaurants earn at least half their gross from food. The measure faces a Kansas Supreme Court challenge over open saloon provisions, and ballots must be printed with absentee ballots ready by October 17. County costs vary, with examples including Leavenworth 1100 dollars, Douglas 400, Reno 500, and Riley 400.
