\u00a0Jamestown, (CSi)\u00a0\u00a0 Jamestown Police, the\u00a0Stutsman County Sheriff\u2019s Office, the Kidder County Sheriff\u2019s\u00a0Office and the North Dakota Highway Patrol were involved in a high speed pursuit of a motorcycle, on I-94 westbound.<\/p>\n

The chase followed police attempting to pull over a Jamestown\u00a0 man\u00a0riding a motorcycle through town at about 9:30 Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n

An officer with the Stutsman County Regional Task Force saw a 27-year-old Jamestown man riding the motorcycle\u00a0 on Business Loop East near 13th Avenue, Southeast.<\/p>\n

Police Chief\u00a0 Scott Edinger says the officer knew the man had a suspended Texas driver\u2019s license and attempted to pull\u00a0him over in an unmarked police car, with flashing lights\u00a0. The man did not pull over.<\/p>\n

The man continued to operate \u00a0on Business Loop East through Jamestown to 17th Street Southwest, entering\u00a0I-94 at Exit 257, with two marked Jamestown police cars and\u00a0 NDHP vehicles in pursuit with speeds reaching over 120 mph..<\/p>\n

Edinger says as the pursuit continued,\u00a0 the man threw objects out of his pockets.<\/p>\n

The pursuit ended near the\u00a0 I-94 Crystal Springs exit,\u00a0 36 miles west of Jamestown,\u00a0as the man\u00a0attempted to negotiate the motorcycle\u00a0\u00a0at a curve at high speed, crossed the median and lost control of the motorcycle\u00a0as it hit the rumble strip on the eastbound lanes of I-94.<\/p>\n

The man was transported by air ambulance to Sanford Medical Center in Bismarck, with injuries to his arm, back, and leg..<\/p>\n

The man was not wearing a helmet.<\/p>\n

Authorities\u00a0\u00a0will speak to the man about the items he tossed during the pursuit, \u00a0found in the median and ditches near Exit 257 and mile markers 232 and 228.<\/p>\n

Charges have not yet been filed, as the investigation continues.<\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi) Legal action may be taken, as two individuals on election day afternoon, were asking people to sign a petition, to put a statewide measure on the ballot in the November general election, for the proposed Clean Water, Wildlife and Parks Amendment.<\/p>\n

The two were in violation of the North Dakota Century Code, seeking petition signatures from voters, in the entryway of the lower north entrance to the Civic Center where the polls were located.<\/p>\n

Their location was closer to the polling place than permitted by state law.<\/p>\n

Officials asked them to move from the entryway, they moved, but not further than the required 100 feet from the entrance to the polling location.<\/p>\n

They purportedly became hostile, saying their constitutional rights were being infringed upon.<\/p>\n

Law enforcement was called, with Sheriff Chad Kaiser arriving on scene, followed Jamestown Police.<\/p>\n

Asking for signatures for a petition within 100 feet of the entryway to a polling place is a class A misdemeanor in North Dakota, punishable by up to a year in jail and a $3,000 fine.<\/p>\n

Stutsman County COO Casey Bradley says, the State\u2019s Attorney will be asked to pursue charges against them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2013 Opponents and supporters of a proposed North Dakota ballot measure dealing with conservation funding are at odds over the actions of people collecting petition signatures during Tuesday\u2019s primary election.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The dispute is over whether the signature collectors were too close to polling sites. State law prohibits people from soliciting voters within 100 feet of the entrance to a polling site.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The group North Dakotans for Clean Water, Wildlife and Parks says it did nothing wrong while gathering signatures to try to get the proposed measure on November\u2019s general election ballot.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The opposition group North Dakotans for Common Sense Conservation says it plans to file complaints with the secretary of state\u2019s office.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The proposal seeks to set aside more of the state\u2019s oil extraction taxes for conservation, education and recreation.<\/p>\n

\u00a0VALLEY CITY, N.D. (AP) – A southeastern North Dakota mayor who survived a recall election two years ago has held off another challenge.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Voters in Valley City on Tuesday gave Bob Werkhoven another four years in the race against Jeff Edwards.\u00a0 Werkhoven received 721 votes, to 581 for Edwards.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Werkhoven won the 2012 recall election with 57 percent of the vote.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The special election stemmed from political turmoil that included the departure of police chief Dean Ross amid allegations he mishandled public money. The city dropped those allegations, and Ross ran for Werkhoven’s seat.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s primary election turnout was the lowest in decades.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Data from the Secretary of State’s Office show turnout for Tuesday’s election was 17 percent, with just more than 93,000 people making it to the polls.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The agency has been keeping turnout records since 1980. The previous low for a June primary was 19 percent in 2004.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota has no voter registration, and the turnout percentage is calculated using a North Dakota State Data Center estimate of the number of eligible voters.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The center estimated there were 545,020 North Dakotans who were eligible to vote. That population was based on 2012 census data.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The most recent census data show about 561,000 people are eligible to vote. Using those population figures, the turnout would be about 16 percent.

\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota Secretary of State Al Jaeger says computer server problems caused his agency’s website to be down sporadically shortly after the polls closed in the primary election.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jaeger says the state Information Technology Department’s servers suffered glitches that prevented election results from being accessed Tuesday night.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jaeger says he also had problems accessing the website. He says the problem persisted for about an hour until the state servers were rebooted.
