Initiative Petitions
- Visit the Initiatives website for information on how to:
- Register as a paid petition circulator or access petition forms once registered
- Attention: Registration to circulate petitions as a paid petition circulator is different from registration to collect voter registration applications as a third-party voter registration organization (3PVRO). While a person can do both activities, the person still has to register separately with the State beforehand. Please note if registered to conduct both activities that only persons who are already registered to vote can sign an initiative petition. To register as a 3PVRO, visit our 3PVRO webpage.
