*Coloradans for Smart Wolf Policy needed 125,000 signatures, but called the 25,000-plus it collected a “running start” if it decides to try again next year *
A group seeking to end wolf reintroduction in Colorado says it’s going back to the drawing board after failing to collect the voter signatures needed to get a measure on the November 2026 ballot.
Patrick Davis, lead organizer for Coloradans for Smart Wolf Policy, the group backing Proposition 13, said Wednesday evening the group had collected 25,000 signatures and was still counting. That was well short of the 125,000 signatures needed to get the initiative before voters next year.
The group’s deadline to turn in its signatures was Wednesday.
Coloradans for Smart Wolf Policy said it wouldn’t submit the signatures it collected. Davis said if Smart Wolf Policy decides to go for it in a future election cycle, “we’ll have a running start” because “we can go back to the people who circulated our petitions for us.”
I hope the wolves terrorize them in particular.
“Back to the drawing board” is code for pushing more lies and propaganda then try again, isn’t it?
Ding ding ding!
They can try all the time and need to win only once. Now they’ll have more time to see how they can lie and cheat to get what they want
aaaAAAWOOOOOOOooooooooooOOOoOoOoOOOooooooooooooo!
Fucking assholes, lol.
How’s the WiFi in Yellowstone? Lol
Every bird is a mobile hotspot…. So better than yours. Probably.
Fuck yeah. Putting the W in WIMBY
Another W for wolves :3
I’m a little unclear from the article, do they get to bank the 25,000 they already have? The next time around can they just start with those 25,000 already on the rolls? Or do they need to get fresh new ones? Cuz what if one of those people already signed change their minds?
Mountain wolves!
