It prompts the voters to go through the entire ballot and at least they ready every page.

We anticipated this. Voters are really hungry to have it on the ballot.

The Durum Growers had the idea, but it covers just about the entire spectrum. The association is ready to begin work on this and hopes it will bring a new positive option for North Dakota farmers.

I think we're in excellent position to be on the ballot in November. From our experiences with voters over the last five months, we have no doubt it will pass by a large margin.

I'm not going to put any stock in a poll that asks voters what they think of a hypothetical ballot matchup that is 14 months and three statewide campaigns away. We've got to get through the special election, the Democratic primary and then a hypothetical general election.

We clearly are excited about engaging voters, and we're ready to do that.
