Yelm police number improperly listed in voter pamphlet The Yelm Police Department's telephone number was improperly listed in the state voters guide as a number to call for information opposing a ballot initiative to legalize medical use of marijuana. The department's nonemergency number, printed in 1.9 million copies of the pamphlet, mistakenly was provided to Secretary of State Ralph Munro, whose office produced the pamphlet, Yelm Police Chief Glenn Dunnam said. Dunnam helped write the pamphlet's statement opposing the initiative. State law bars using any public office or facility to support or oppose ballot measures. Susan Harris, assistant director of the Public Disclosure Commission, said her office was looking into the matter. Callers to the Yelm police number who ask about Initiative 692 are referred to the Seattle number of Mike Suydam, who is running the campaign to defeat the marijuana initiative. "I know the rules, and I make sure I follow them - unless there is human error, and that is what this is," Dunnam said.
