Long stadium initiatives making ballots too heavy

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The San Diego City Council on Wednesday rejected a cost- saving plan to place the texts of two lengthy citizen initiatives online, which means officials will mail to voters pamphlets containing the information.

The pamphlets will supplement the normal informational pamphlets voters will receive prior to the November election.

"To me, this is more about making sure everybody has the information in front of them in order to cast an informed vote,'' Councilman Scott Sherman said at a special meeting.

One of the initiatives would fund construction of a Chargers stadium and convention center annex.
