Washington Supreme Court June 11, 1998, No. 64332-6 (State v. 119 Vote No! Committee)

Sanders, J.

The Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) alleges the 119 Vote No! Committee violated RCW 42.17.530(l)(a) by publishing false political advertising. We must decide two issues: does RCW 42.17.530(l)(a) violate the First Amendment on its face; and, if not, did the subject advertisement violate the statute. As we conclude, RCW 42.17.
