SJR 34 - This act, upon voter approval, would allow any
committee to file a petition with an election authority to re-
elect an incumbent in the state Senate or state House of
Representatives who is otherwise ineligible due to term limits.
If the district is located in more than one county, the petition
shall be filed with the county clerk of the county with the
greater population. The number of signatures on the petition
must be at least 10% of the total votes cast for that office in
the last election.
