Guidelines for 2008 Elections Referendums

Representatives of referendum petitions must submit Elections Form C (Word DOC or PDF).  Referendum petitions must include the exact wording of the measure to appear on the ballot and be supported by at least 500 valid signatures of currently enrolled graduate or professional students at UCLA.  The name of an official campaign representative for the referendum item must be included on the petition form.  Petition sheets for referenda and constitutional amendments must include the exact wording of each proposed referendum or constitutional amendment at the top of each petition sheet.  Constitutional amendments must include the current language and proposed changes for the Constitution.  The deadline to submit a referendum or constitutional amendment is 5:00pm on April 7, 2008 in Kerckhoff 316.
