      If this is like California, the proposition process allows the gathering of signatures and if enough are collected, the proposition goes to the ballot for direct democracy vote, bypassing the legislature in many cases.

      I’ve never heard of police going to verify signatures directly. But it’s not technically voting.

        Generally, verifying signatures is a function of the Auditor’s office, but who knows, maybe the swat team does that in Florida.
