Summary

Existing law provides that a constitutional amendment submitted to the people by the Legislature shall appear on the ballot of the first statewide election occurring at least 131 days after the adoption of the proposal by the Legislature. Existing law further provides that the Secretary of State is the chief elections officer of the state and requires the Secretary of State to perform specified duties, including preparing and mailing ballot pamphlets, in connection with any statewide election. Existing law requires the Attorney General to provide for each ballot measure submitted to the voters of the state a ballot title, an official summary, and a ballot label that shall be a condensed statement of the ballot title and summary. This bill would waive the 131-day requirement in order to place before the voters at the 2012 statewide presidential primary election a legislative constitutional amendment relating to state finance. In addition, this bill would set forth language to be used for the ballot label and the ballot title and summary for that measure. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
