• The 2000 election was a “referendum.” In 2009, ballot questions will be presented as an “initiative.” • According to Navajo law, a majority vote is required in each of the 110 chapters for a referendum chapter votes against the referendum, the entire referendum fails to pass. • That is called a “supermajority.” • This standard is nearly impossible to achieve.
