CA Voter ID Petition Reaches 750k Signatures - Dec 31 Set as Deadline

Reform California has announced that the California Voter ID Initiative has now surpassed 750,000 signatures – and with only 250,000 signatures left to collect, the campaign is asking all volunteers to mail back their signatures no later than December 31, 2025!

“This is the final stretch,” says Reform California Chairman Carl DeMaio. “If you have signatures, get them in now. If you haven’t signed yet, come to a turn-in event— and bring five friends,” DeMaio requests.

Reform California has scheduled a number of “Final Signature Turn In” events statewide where volunteers can drop off their petitions filled with signatures (and get more petitions for the final few days of collecting.) A full list of events are at www.VoterIDEvents.org  

Citizen-proposed ballot measures need 874,641 signatures from registered voters to qualify for placement on the November 2026 statewide ballot.  DeMaio says Reform California needs to get 1 million signatures on the CA Voter ID Initiative because some signatures may get rejected or will be invalid.

“Californians are speaking loud and clear: they want election integrity — and they’re ready to make history to get it,” DeMaio said.

Reform California reports that more than 17,000 volunteers have now been trained and deployed across the state. Volunteers have been collecting signatures at community tables, neighborhood events, churches, shopping centers, and through the statewide bus tour.

In addition to using the Final Signature Turn In events to wrap up the CA Voter ID Initiative signature drive, DeMaio will use these events to brief supporters on Reform California’s strategy to win in 2026! It is ambitious and involves targeting 26 winnable seats to end the Democrats’ Super-Majority, enacting CA Voter ID, saving Prop 13, etc.

“But to make this plan work, we need more activists to join the fight – so I’m asking every one of our supporters to not only attend the event in their area themselves, but to recruit and bring 5 friends along with them,” DeMaio concluded.
