bipartisan Board of Canvassers. It was a workgroup chaired by the Democratic chair and the Republican
vice chair. Two Democrats and two Republicans on the state Board of Canvassers came to testify in support
of this bill. The whole genesis of this were the Republican candidates for Governor getting defrauded during
the petition process, and these were the recommendations that came to the Legislature from the Board of
Canvassers to strengthen our law to make sure those situations don’t happen again. I can’t think of a more
democratic process than that and for the Legislature to take up these bills. I urge a “yes” vote.

With both of those things in mind, I would urge a “no” vote on these pieces of legislation.

charter schools, why we wouldn’t be rushing them through at the last minute during lame duck? There
