As a result of recent court decisions, the number of potential ballot questions that may appear on the ballot in November 2026 has been reduced from eleven to nine. These ballot questions still have some administrative and legal challenges to overcome before mid-July when the Secretary of State will certify the ballot questions. Once that happens, we will update this post to provide information on the final ballot questions.
Until then …

*Please note – the LWVMA Board votes to support, oppose, or take no position on specific ballot questions based on positions or goals previously researched and adopted by the League, which are described in Impact on Issues (LWVUS) and Where We Stand (LWVMA). As a nonpartisan political organization, LWVMA does not endorse political parties or candidates, but does advocate for issues that the organization has studied and taken a position on after consensus from members.
