Laws governing local ballot measures
Laws governing local ballot measures in Idaho
- In Idaho, the initiative and referendum process is mandated for all general law cities and counties and guidelines for the process are established by state law to a large degree of specificity. Idaho State Statutes Title 34 Ch. 18 lays out laws regarding initiative and referendum elections.[1]
- These statutes apply to all counties as all are general law counties.
- Of the 200 cities, 199 of them are general law and thus fall under this mandate. Bellevue, the one charter city, has initiative and referendum in its charter and the rules and procedures are very similar to the state mandated rules and procedures.
