Governor Declares Special Election on June 26
Acting to thwart Independent Voters' association plans for early initiation, officials call a special election for June 26 to vote on seven proposed laws. Petitions for initiation have not yet been filed and could not be properly certified in time. The governor argues voters would be confused by complex proposed measures drawn similarly to existing laws.
