    In Rummel v. Estelle, the Supreme Court is examining the question of “whether the petitioner was subjected to cruel and unusual punishment”, with the petitioner being William James Rummel. In accordance to Texas’ “recidivist statute”, which provides that “[whoever] shall have been three times convicted of a felony less than capital shall on such third conviction be imprisoned for life in the penitentiary”, Rummel was sentenced to life in prison with chance for parole. This, Rummel protested, was “grossly disproportionate” to the three felonies he committed prior to receive this sentence, as none were violent. Justice Rehnquist, who delivered the Court opinion, in which Chief Justice Burger and Justices Stewart, White, and Blackmun joined, noted that Rummel agreed that the recidivist statute was generally constitutional, except in its application to his case. In addition, Rummel did not protest the classification of any of his three offenses as felonies.…

    When this pamphlet came in the mail last year, I specifically remember spending a few hours on a Saturday reading every little detail. After I read the ballot portions I went to Ballotpedia ( http://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia:About ) and also researched it there. In addition, to the opinions in the voters pamphlet, I also looked at the coverage of pros and cons by the state newspapers (The Oregonian, and the Statesman Journal). Once I made up my mind, I penciled it as a Y or N in the voter pamphlet.…
