What ‘Yes’/’No’ Mean For Referenda

Looking ahead to the November 2012 general election, Secretary of State Ben Ysursa said there will be three referenda on the ballot on the “Students Come First” school reform plan. “Folks should remember that a ‘yes’ vote would be in favor of the legislation that was passed by the Legislature dealing with Students Come First,” Ysursa told JFAC. “If you’re against the legislation and do not like it and wish that it be repealed, then the person would cast a ‘no’ vote. I think it’s going to be pretty clear”/ Betsy Russell , Eye On Boise.
