Idaho Legislature Passes Bill Making it Far More Difficult for Statewide Initiatives to get on Ballot

On March 22, the Idaho House passed SB 1108 by a vote of 45-21. The bill had already passed the Senate. It requires that statewide initiative petitions contain the signatures of 6% of the registered voters in each of 18 of the state’s 35 legislative districts. Current law requires that the petition be signed by 6% of the state’s registered voters, but it doesn’t matter where in the state they live. See this story.
