Workers gathering signatures for the effort to divert clean energy funds to Portland police are using talking points that don’t line up with the petition’s actual text.

I had one of these folks approach me at the bus stop two days ago. She was frustrated that I was already aware of the grift.

    I wish I could say this felt atypical. In Nebraska basically every petition we have is misrepresented, but even if you record petitioners doing it wrong all it gets is that particular signature thrown out and the rest of the petition is not thrown out. The latest for this year is an anti trans bill aimed at keeping trans athletes out of sports that is being described as "fairness for girls" or "protecting women" with no further elaboration
