Referendum Petitions Studied as Maine and New Hampshire Actors Do Battle
A state election division review of referendum petitions found dozens of signatures challenged for technical reasons. Maine and New Hampshire groups aim to suspend motor vehicle fee increases with a statewide vote possible between December and February 1958. If enough valid signatures are verified, voters will decide on whether to uphold or repeal highway and license fee hikes backed by lawmakers. Fraud or technical defects aside, the process continues as petitions are scrutinized and deadlines loom.
