    On page 6, after line 21, insert the following:

"NEW SECTION.  Sec. 5.  A new section is added to chapter 29A.72 RCW to read as follows:

    Any person who signs a petition for a ballot measure may request that his or her signature be removed on that petition by making a written request to the secretary of state.  The request must be signed and postmarked no later than the day signature petitions are due to be filled with the secretary of state.  The secretary of state shall revoke a signature only in instances where the signature verification procedure necessitates that all signatures on a petition be verified."

    Correct the title.

EFFECT: Provides a mechanism for the revocation of a signature on a petition for a proposed ballot measure.
