Digest
HB 1783 imposes stricter requirements for ballot propositions and petitions related to elections. It mandates that ballot language must be clear, definite, neutral, and not misleading. The bill grants the Secretary of State authority to review and potentially rewrite defective ballot propositions, introduces petition form regulations, and requires home-rule cities to comply with standardized procedures. It also provides legal remedies for mandamus actions to address noncompliance​.
