California Nonpartisan Elections Initiative


Thanks to Richard Winger of Ballot Access news for this post.

Proponents of Nonpartisan Elections for all California State offices have drafted a proposed State Constitutional Initiative, and have asked the California Attorney General’s office to review the language and give the proposal a title.

The proponents are represented by Sutton Law Firm, which specializes in election law and has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles.

The initiative would revise the State Constitution to remove Party labels from ballots and sample ballots, for all the Statewide Executive offices and the Legislature.

It would retain Party labels for President and Congress elections.
