Arnold's opposition to a referendum on SB60 speaks volumes now. That means it is our job to kill this bill regardless of what he says on the topic.

I agree with you and will be signing the petition, but if it's passed by the voters and gets challenged in court, could Arnold decide to not fight the court challenge? That's what I'm worried about.

I can't see how a referendum whose only effect is to repeal a law could be effectively challenged in court. The only things they could attack are the language of the petition (which has already been approved by the SOS), or the conduct of the election.

Both are very tough legal hills to climb. It is a very different thing than challenging an initiative.
