All states (I believe) require a voter to "sign the book."

Almost 800 registered voters in Buda signed a petition asking for a referendum election.

The legislation now passed by both houses keeps the old rule, which says voters can sign only one petition.

In Idaho, for example, when voters sign a petition they must also certify they will "support" the candidate.

Under the settlement, these voters would sign a statement affirming their new address.

Louisiana and Florida allow voters to sign affidavits at the polling place swearing to their identities.

The referendum was in the form of a petition which voters could sign as being for or against.

On some forms, the voters themselves did not even sign them.

It took the form of a petition in which voters could sign in yes or no columns.

They ask the voters to simply sign the requests for the absentee ballots and then forward the applications to the election supervisor's office.
