I hope they are successful. Qualifying an initiative or a referendum petition for the ballot in Oklahoma was already very difficult and the new regulations passed this year made it even harder.
I’m hoping they’re unsuccessful. Qualifying an initiative or referendum should be impossible. Separation of labor is a good thing. Let legislators do their jobs. However imperfectly they do it, plumbers and garbagemen are worse at it, just as legislators would be worse at those other folks jobs if they had to do them. Short of getting rid of this failed experiment completely, make qualifying ballot questions as difficult as possible.
