Title 22 Elections

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

22-29-106. Requirements for signers of petition; signer's withdrawal prohibited; chief petitioners designated.

(a) This section applies to petitions authorized under a principal act or this act. Each person who signs a petition shall add after the signature the date of signing. If a person is signing the petition as an elector, the person shall add after his signature the person's date of birth and place of residence, giving street and number or a designation sufficient to enable the place of residence to be readily ascertained. If the signer is signing the petition as a landowner, the number of acres of land owned by the signer and the name of the county whose assessment roll is used for the purpose of determining the signer's right to vote shall be stated in the body of the petition or indicated opposite the signature. If the signer is a legal representative of the owner, the signature shall be accompanied by the signer's written authorization to sign as a legal representative. (b) After a petition has been offered for filing, a person may not withdraw his name therefrom. (c) A petition shall designate not more than three (3) persons as chief petitioners, setting forth their names and mailing addresses. A petition may consist of a single instrument or separate counterparts. (d) The secretary of state shall, after consultation with the county clerks, develop uniform petition forms which shall be used by special districts.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
