PART B

 
Sec. B-1. Statutory referendum procedure; submission at statewide election; form of
question; effective date. This Act must be submitted to the legal voters
of the State at a statewide election held on the Tuesday
following the first Monday of November following passage of this
Act. The municipal officers of this State shall notify the
inhabitants of their respective cities, towns and plantations to
meet, in the manner prescribed by law for holding a statewide
election, to vote on the acceptance or rejection of this Act by
voting on the following question:

 
Do you favor allowing a tribal harness racing track and slot
machines in Washington County?

 
The legal voters of each city, town and plantation shall vote
by ballot on this question and designate their choice by a cross
or check mark placed within a corresponding square below the word
Yes or No. The ballots must be received, sorted, counted and
declared in open ward, town and plantation meetings and returns
made to the Secretary of State in the same manner as votes for
members of the Legislature. The Governor shall review the
returns and, if it appears that a majority of the legal votes are
cast in favor of the Act, the Governor shall proclaim that fact
without delay, and the Act takes effect 30 days after the date of
the proclamation.

 
The Secretary of State shall prepare and furnish to each city,
town and plantation all ballots, returns and copies of this Act
necessary to carry out the purposes of this referendum.
