ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR THE CIRCULATOR’S AFFIDAVIT

(required for volunteers helping to collect petition signatures)

 Each signature page of the petition must include an affidavit, completed by a circulator who is an individual (not a business or organization), stating that:

  1. All identifying information given by the circulator is true and correct;

  2. Signatures were placed on the petition in the circulator’s presence; and

  3. Based on the circulator’s best knowledge and belief, each signature on the page is genuine and each signer is a registered voter in Frederick City.

Notes:

  • We will provide volunteers with an petitions as needed.

  • Circulators must sign and date the affidavit but should wait until after all petition signers have signed and dated the page. Any signature on the page that is dated after the circulator’s affidavit is invalid.

  • A petition circulator must be at least 18 years old when any signature covered by the affidavit is placed on the petition. Maryland law does not require the petition circulator to be a registered voter or a Maryland resident.
