    The props are worded so insanely that without hours of prep, I would vote incorrectly.

      My state banned ranked choice voting by an insane margin because it was worded like “only citizens should be allowed to vote, and each citizen only gets one vote each!” Literally two Google searches would clear it up if people had more critical thinking skills

        That’s what I’d call a rigged election.

        This is also one of the downsides of citizen ballot initiatives. The proponent can usually word things however they want.

        In Mass., I know they have a strict judicial review for the language. It requires a clear and fair statement, and it gets refined through a unique type of litigation.
