  Although there were many candidates in the primary who supported Simply Equal, only two of the six primary winners were for the initiative: Nalbandian, who finished first in the primary and political newcomer Allen Levine, who finished sixth.

  While Levine had not gotten into the race just to support Simply Equal, he acknowledged the initiative's role in his victory.
  
  "I had run to talk about growth issues and things like that, and [the Freedom Coalition] gave an injection of enthusiasm into the campaign," Levine said.

  Levine, who considers Simply Equal "one of the few bright moments in the state's recent history," remembers constituents threatening to leave Lawrence if the amendment ever passed.

  According to Allen Levine , director of sales/marketing for Kansas-based Pines Wheatgrass , the main difference between fresh wheatgrass and powdered wheatgrass is the maturity of the plants when they're harvested.It's a lot like the difference between a sprout and a mature plant , he said.Both are very good , but they have slightly different characteristics..Levine also said the people who tend to use Pines' powdered wheatgrass are interested in vitamins , minerals and proteins , while the people who opt for fresh wheatgrass juice are more interested in the enzymes.
  
  ...
  According to Levine , Pines also cuts its grass just before the joint stage ; however , Pines grows its wheatgrass in fields instead of a greenhouse.The longer you can keep a plant out in a field with good exposure to sunlight , air , soil , and the slower you can grow it , the more nutritious it will be..For this reason , the organic hard red winter wheat used for Pines' powdered wheatgrass is planted in the Fall so the plants' roots will have to grow straight down to beat the frost line.It takes about 200 days for [ the grass ] to become six inches tall , right before the 'joint stage.' When the plants reach their nutritional peak , just before the joint stage , the top three inches are cut , and the cuttings are transported in a sterile truck to the nearby dehydrator.The grass is then dehydrated and pelletized to reduce surface area , reducing exposure to oxygen and sunlight.The pellets are put into 2 , 000-lb. pharmaceutical bags filled with nitrogen , and then stored in cold storage until they are ground into powder.The powder is packaged in amber glass and shipped to retailers and customers.

  "After the primary, when the remaining candidates were two members of the religious right (against), Bonnie Augustine (against), Nalbadian (for) and Levine (for), he read that as meaning that the people were against it."
  
  The commission postponed a vote on the amendment despite Compton's request and Simply Equal became the overriding electoral issue in the city.Without any hope of passing the amendment before the election, the Freedom Coalition needed to employ grassroots electoral tactics to elect both Levine and shoo-in candidate Nalbandian in order to have a majority, along with incumbent Andersen.But that would take a small miracle.
  
  "When the commission didn't vote on it, it was fuel for our fire," Green recalls."The sentiment was right, the public was behind us, and opposition in the commission was just a temporary glitch."
  ...
  Zimmerman and Green started campaigning tirelessly for Levine, canvassing the streets of Lawrence and encouraging voters to use only two of their three available votes, since only two candidates, Nalbandian and Levine, supported Simply Equal.

  "I had run to talk about growth issues and things like that, and [the Freedom Coalition] gave an injection of enthusiasm into the campaign," Levine said."I feel very fortunate to have been at the right place at the right time and wouldn't trade the experience.I think it's rare that public officials get a chance to vote on civil rights.It's really a great honor."
  
  Compton, hurt by his indecisiveness, finished fifth in the election.
  
  ...
  Levine, who considers Simply Equal "one of the few bright moments in the state's recent history," remembers constituents threatening to leave Lawrence if the amendment ever passed.
  
  "My response was always, ‘I'll be standing at K-10 with a hanky waving good-bye,'" Levine said laughingly."Ultimately, my comment to most people who were really against it was that whether you believe in this or not, the day after we pass Simply Equal the sun is going to rise and set on our community and you're not going to notice one bit of difference.But some people, just a few of your fellow residents and neighbors, might be sleeping a little more comfortably."
  
  It is true that Lawrence's queer residents can sleep a little more soundly these days.But there is still much to be done.

  Not if the Freedom Coalition has its way.
