Maine GOP Statement on Status of People's Veto to Repeal Ranked Choice
Voting

 

 

AUGUSTA, ME-- Maine Republican Party Chair, Dr. Demi Kouzounas, issued
the following statement regarding the Secretary of State's Decision to
reject the People's Veto of RCV in Presidential Elections.

"Let me be clear. This fight is not over." said

**Chair Dr. Demi Kouzounas.** "It is abundantly clear that the Secretary
of State used every trick in the book to throw out enough signatures
through a litany of technicalities to keep this question off the ballot.

The voters who signed these petitions to Repeal Ranked Choice voting
deserve to be heard, not silenced through bureaucratic technicalities.
These voters were from across the political spectrum and included
Democrats, Independents, and Republicans. We were given no notice of
this decision before it was announced by the Secretary of State, but
this statement is our notice that we will fight to make sure every Maine
voter is heard and every legitimate signature is counted."
