SB 611: Initiative and referendum petitions: circulation requirements.
- Session Year: 2015-2016
- House: Senate
- Latest Version Date: 2015-02-27
Existing law authorizes a person who is a registered voter or who is qualified to register to vote in this state to circulate an initiative or referendum petition anywhere within the state. Existing law requires that each section of an initiative or referendum petition bear the name of a county or city and county, and allows only qualified registered voters of that county or city and county to sign that section of the petition.
This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
(a)A person who meets the requirements of Section 102 may circulate a statewide initiative or referendum petition anywhere within the state. Each section of the initiative or referendum petition shall bear the name of a county or city and county, and only qualified registered voters of that county or city and county may sign that section.
(b)The circulator may sign the section he or she is circulating as provided in Section 106.
