Supporters of a ballot referendum that would require voters to show a photo ID at polling locations are challenging the language in the referendum.
The conservative political action committee called The Dinner Table says the language finalized by the Maine Secretary of State’s Office is misleading and partisan.
The group says the question as its worded uses technical language, and is the longest ballot question in Maine state history.
The Dinner Table is seeking a court order that would require Secretary of State Shenna Bellows to revise the question.
In a statement, Bellows said the language in the question accurately reflects what’s in the proposed law, saying: “I challenge Dinner Table Action to name one provision in the question that isn’t in the law that they have proposed. If they didn’t want the provisions in the question, they shouldn’t have put them in the proposed law.”
