Idaho Reinstatement of Term Limits through Ballot Restrictions Initiative, Initiative 2 (2002)
The Idaho Reinstatement of Term Limits through Ballot Restrictions Initiative, also known as Initiative 2, was on the November 5, 2002 ballot in Idaho as a veto referendum, where it was approved. The measure voted on House Bill 425, which if rejected, would enact ballot access restrictions that limited the terms of office for state elected officeholders, state legislative elected officeholders, county elected officeholders, and municipal elected officeholders and school board members. The veto referendum approved House Bill 425, which prevented the ballot access restrictions from going into effect.[1]
