Supreme Court of Arkansas

Randy Zook v. Mark…

October 18, 2018557 S.W.3d 880

Summary

The court denied the challenge to the certification of a statewide minimum-wage initiative, holding that the petition contained enough signatures on its face to qualify for the thirty-day cure period and that the Secretary of State properly counted the cure signatures. The court held that its review at the cure stage concerns the prima facie numerical sufficiency of signatures, not the final validity of every signature or petition component.
