Maine Bill Defeated, Would have Provided Public List of Initiative and Referendum Signers

On February 25, the Maine Joint Legal & Veterans Affairs defeated LD 1690. It would have provided that after the town clerks had checked initiative and referendum petitions, the Secretary of State would have made an electronic list available to anyone of those names and addresses. The purpose would have been to make it easier for opponents of such referendum and initiative petitions to challenge the validity of the signatures. See this story.

The bill also would have let voters who had signed an initiative or referendum petition remove their names, up until 15 days before the petitions are due. Thanks to Ballot Box News for the link.

  1. this game is one of the best pc games I have playd so far. It is because of the cool visual effects. But unfortunaly no pc game is better than Call Of Duty MW 2 on xbox 360, so I am returning to the consol now ^^ In some days my brother will borrow me this game once more, so maybe I will return to my pc then 🙂
