Idaho open primary supporters submit signatures
Mayville
Supporters of the Idaho open primary ballot initiative have submitted more than 95,000 signatures to county clerks across the state.
To get the initiative on the November ballot, supporters need to gather valid signatures from at least 6% of registered voters statewide, or about 63,000 voters in total, as well as 6% of voters in 18 different legislative districts. Members of the Idahoans for Open Primaries coalition believe they have collected valid signatures well in excess of the state’s requirements.
“We are confident that these signatures will secure open primaries a place on the ballot,” Ashley Prince, the coalition’s campaign manager, said in a news release. “And we look forward to thousands more voter conversations before November.”
