Again it sounds nice on its face, but I doubt it will accomplish anything in the long run. ND already requires Internet posting of all bills and all provisions of the ballot initiative other than bribery are unenforceable and bribery is illegal already. I don't know a thing about ND politics, but I doubt that these issues are a problem up there or anywhere else (other than perhaps CA where the initiator hails from). Actually, I think ballot initiatives themselves are a bigger problem than the issues that this initiative is trying to fix.
