Referendum Elections are held to provide Maine’s citizens an opportunity to vote on People’s Veto Referenda, Direct Initiatives of Legislation (i.e. Citizen Initiatives), Bond Issues, other referenda proposed by the Legislature, and Constitutional Amendments.  Referendum elections are an important part of the heritage of public participation in Maine.

Your vote is your voice!

The policies that people with developmental disabilities want to see happen need the support of our elected officials – that’s one reason that voting is so important. Decisions get made by those with a seat at the table – we want to make sure that table is filled with people who will work to make policy that works towards a more supportive and inclusive society!

Here are some resources to help you vote and learn about the candidates you are voting for.
