Getting measures on the ballot
Idaho allows citizen initiatives in the form of initiated state statutes and veto referendums. Idaho petition signature requirements are determined by calculating 6% of the registered voters in the state's last general election.
The Idaho Legislature has the power to place constitutional amendments on the ballot when both houses of the legislature approve the amendment by a two-thirds majority vote. Once on the ballot, the amendment must be approved by a simple majority of the electors.
