Associated Press: A new report gives Nebraska and 12 other states an "F" on the integrity of their ballot initiative processes. The Ballot Initiative Strategy Center says in a report issued Thursday that most states that allow ballot initiatives are ripe for abuse, fraud and deception in the process. In Nebraska, the authority to make laws lies with the state's unique, one-house Legislature and, since 1912, in the initiative process. If people can gather enough signatures, they can have an issue placed on the ballot to change or create a law or amend the Nebraska Constitution. The report notes that one paid petition circulator testified that he signed some of his paperwork at home, even though Nebraska law requires it to be signed in the presence of a notary public.

Very good site. I like your commenting system. My apologies for the off-topic post, nevertheless I ended up being pretty astounded with Djokovic’s play in the final of the Australia OPen this year. The guy is just unbeatable. He exhibited he had been as formidable as steel. Just imagine about he he can defeat Nadal who had previously been so stimulated to succeed as well as really was so motivated up during the fifth set. Now i’m starting to think that Djokovic is doing some spiritual work to take some aids on his side that help him secure this sort of matches against the best players in the planet
