Click on each step below for detailed instructions. 

STEP 1 -  WRITE IN THE COUNTYWrite in the county where the voters who sign this petition are registered to vote. Two different counties? Use two separate petitions.

STEP 2 – SIGN THE PETITIONUsing blue or black ink, print your name, sign your name, and write your residential street address and city. This must be the address where you are registered to vote. Each voter must write their own information. The second voter’s signature is optional. You can return the petition with one signature.

STEP 3 – COMPLETE THE DECLARATION OF CIRCULATORComplete and sign the Declaration of Circulator. This is the official certification that you witnessed the voter signing the petition (even if you witnessed your own signature). This is an essential step! Without a completed and signed Declaration of Circulator, the signatures on the petition will not count. You can be the circulator for an unlimited number of petitions. Of course, you can only sign once in the signature blocks for voter signatures. Duplicate voter signatures will not count.

Valerie Voter signed the petition and is also the circulator. Her brother Vincent lives in the same county, so he could sign the same petition. Then Valerie filled out and signed the Declaration of Circulator showing the dates she collected the signatures and the date and place where she signed (executed) the Declaration of Circulator. The petition is ready to mail to the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, 1201 K Street, Suite 1030, Sacramento, CA 95814.

ABOUT THE TOP FUNDERS LIST:

State law requires that petition signers see a copy of the “Official Top Funders sheet” and that “its month is still valid.” A top funder is defined as a donor who has contributed $50,000 or more to the Protect Prop. 13 committee in the last 12 months. If there are no donors who meet those conditions, the Top Funders sheet shows only that the Protect Prop. 13 committee is paying for the petition circulation.
