Term Limits Measure Fails to Make North Dakota Ballot

“North Dakota Secretary of State Al Jaeger announced Tuesday, March 22, a proposed measure to set term limits on legislators and governors will not appear on the November ballot after thousands of signed petitions failed to meet legal standards,” the Fargo Forum reports.

“The state’s top election official also alleged that the group behind the measure violated state law by offering signature gatherers bonuses for obtaining signed petitions. Jaeger wrote in a letter to measure chairman Jared Hendrix that his office rejected more than 29,000 of the roughly 46,000 petitions turned in by the group.”
