New Poll: Should the intent of the voter reign supreme?

Wed, Mar 25 2009 by Bettina Inclan

Recently news has focused on the battle over petitions and the intent of the voter.

Petition and petition circulators are hot button issues in states with the initiative and referendum process (I&R). Each year hundreds of petition gathers (a.k.a. petition circulators) collect thousands of signatures from voters on a large array of issues. And every year thousands are invalidated because of mistakes made by notary, the petition circulator or government official.

Which leads us to the question, should the intent of the voter reign supreme?

In a new poll we are asking what is more important, the voter signing the petition or the actions of the petition circulator, notary approving the signature or government officials.
