Smart Summary Please sign up to generate summary. CHRISTENSON, Petitioner, v. PAULUS, Respondent. LENT, J. This is a challenge by one who does not favor passage of the measure which was the subject of our decision today in Ferry v. Paulus, 297 Or. 70, 682 P.2d 262 (1984). This petitioner urges that the Attorney General's provided title, which we have set forth verbatim in Ferry v. Paulus, supra, is insufficient because it fails to convey certain effects of passage of the measure and is unfair because the title "misleads voters about the effect of the measure on existing comprehensive plans and zoning. It states local plans and zoning `remain.' It is the requirement to plan and zone, not the plans and zones that remain." We do not choose to discuss the challenge in detail. The petitioner alleges that certain "effects" will flow from passage of the measure. Petitioner may well be correct in some of those respects; in others we have doubts as to the validity of the petitioner's position. The short answer to the petition in this respect is that the Attorney General is not required to speculate as to consequences. See Bartels v. Paulus, 293 Or. 47, 645 P.2d 1059 (1982), and Kegg v. Paulus, 282 Or. 47, 576 P.2d 1255 (1978). We do find that in a technical sense the question provided by the Attorney General is insufficient and inaccurate in the sense which we have quoted above from the petition. During oral argument it was suggested that that insufficiency and inaccuracy could easily be rectified by minor rewording. We agree, and the modified question is set forth in the title which we have certified to the Secretary of State in Ferry v. Paulus, supra. By this decision we certify the same title.
