Portland, Maine. Secretary of State Shenna Bellows ruled Tuesday that an initiative from Protect Girls Sports in Maine, which sought to restrict school sports and bathroom access based on the gender listed on students' birth certificates, will be removed from the November ballot after officials found the petition lacked enough valid signatures. The ruling followed a staff review that found more than 12,000 invalid signatures, leaving the petition a few hundred short of the 67,682 required; Protect Girls Sports has announced it will appeal and take the matter to court, and supporters including Rep. Laurel Libby say the question could resurface before voters in 2026 or 2027.

Timeline of Events

  • 缅因州保护女孩体育组织起草了一项倡议,以按出生性别限制体育运动和设施。

  • 请愿书的征集者收集了签名,使该问题得以列入 11 月的选票。
  • 星期二,州务卿裁定超过 12,000 份签名无效,距离要求的 67,682 份还差一些。
  • 保护女孩体育组织宣布将提起法律诉讼;支持者预计可能在 2026 年或 2027 年的选票上出现。
