Colorado signature requirements are less complicated than most states, because the same number is required for a statutory initiative, referendum, or a constitutional amendment. Colorado is one of only three states (the others are Massachusetts and Nevada) that doesn't require a higher percentage for a constitutional amendment than the percentage for a statutory initiative.
