Oregon “Top-Two” Initiative Turns in 93,154 Signatures

The Oregon initiative to limit the general election ballot to only two choices submitted 93,154 signatures on July 7, the deadline for Oregon initiatives to qualify. 75,630 valid signatures are required. The campaign for the initiative scrupulously eliminated all duplicate names before submitting its petition, and is expressing cautious optimism that it has enough signatures, since volunteers collected most of the signatures, and volunteers usually have higher validity rates than paid circulators. The state probably won’t announce until early August whether the initiative has enough valid signatures.
