= The deadline for filing language in this state has passed.[1]
This is a research page for collecting information to track the number of initiatives filed in each of the states with an initiative or referendum. This page is updated within the first week of each month and lists the number of proposed initiatives as of the first day of the month through August 2017.[2]
This page does count:
- Ballot initiatives and veto measures that were filed for the 2017 election cycle.
- Initiatives that were withdrawn or abandoned after they were filed.
- Initiatives that failed to qualify for the ballot because they missed a petition drive deadline.
- Initiatives that were filed in states with a rolling petition deadline that might still qualify for the 2018 ballot.[3]
- Multiple versions of what appears to be basically the same initiative.[4]
- Initiatives that qualified for a 2017 ballot.
This page does not count:
- Ballot initiatives and veto measures that were filed for the 2018 election cycle or the 2016 election cycle.
- Ballot measures proposed by a state legislature.[5]
- Initiatives that groups said they were going to file but did not actually file.

Footnotes
- ↑ Not all states set a deadline by which sponsors must file a copy of a proposed initiative. In states that do not have a deadline by which a sponsor must file a copy of the proposed initiative with elections officials, the only relevant deadline is the signature deadline.
- ↑ Sponsors of most of the initiatives filed for the 2017 ballot will withdraw or abandon them, in many cases without mounting a serious petition drive.
- ↑ This is true even if sponsors missed their 2017 deadline, as long as they did have a chance of qualifying for the 2018 ballot.
- ↑ 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.
- ↑ See 2017 ballot measures and Potential 2017 ballot measures for information about legislative referrals that have qualified or might qualify for the 2017 ballot.
- ↑ A total of 68 Washington Initiative to the Legislatures were filed in 2016 for the 2017 ballot. Signatures for these initiatives were due December 30, 2016.
