Initiative and referendum links


This is a research page for collecting information to track the number of initiatives filed in each of the states with initiative or referendum.[1] All deadlines for 2014 ballot measures have passed.

This page does count:

  • Initiatives that were filed in states with a rolling petition deadline that might still qualify for the 2015 ballot or 2016 ballot.[3]
  • Multiple versions of what appears to basically be the same initiative.[4]
  • Initiatives that have already qualified for a 2014 ballot.

This page does not count:

  • Ballot measures proposed by a state legislature.[5]
  • Initiatives that groups have said they are going to file, but have not actually filed.

  2. A separate list of initiatives whose sponsors officially withdrew them is forthcoming. Most initiatives that are destined to fail are not officially withdrawn.
  3. Even if they missed their 2014 deadline, as long as they did have a chance of qualifying for the 2014 ballot.
  4. As evidenced by the fact that the multiple versions were filed by the same sponsor or group of sponsors, and include very similar but not entirely identical language.
  5. See 2014 ballot measures and Potential 2014 ballot measures for information about legislative referrals that have or might qualify for the 2014 ballot.
