Who writes the arguments for and against ballot measures that are printed in the Secretary of State’s official Voter Information Guides?
Arguments in favor of and against ballot measures are provided by the proponents and opponents of the ballot measures. If multiple arguments are submitted for or against a measure, first priority is given to arguments written by legislators in the case of legislative measures, and arguments written by the proponents who filed the initiative in the case of an initiative measure. Subsequent priority for all measures goes to bona fide associations of citizens and then to individual voters. The submitted argument language cannot be verified for accuracy or changed in any way unless a court orders it to be changed.
