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.
- ↑ This is true even if sponsors missed their 2019 deadline, as long as they did have a chance of qualifying for the 2019 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 2019 ballot measures and Potential 2019 ballot measures for information about legislative referrals that have qualified or might qualify for the 2019 ballot.
- ↑ In total, 18 different versions of four initiatives were filed targeting the 2019 ballot in Colorado. The numbers below do not count the multiple versions of the four initiatives. The four initiatives concern (1) oil and gas severance taxes, (2) public school funding, (3) oil and gas regulation, and (4) expanding the Learning Opportunities Program.
- ↑ A total of 46 Washington Initiative to the Legislatures were filed in 2018 for the 2019 ballot. Signatures for these initiatives were due January 4, 2019.
