For the first time in more than three decades, Arizona voters are not going to get a chance to make their own laws.
None of the petition drives to amend the state constitution or laws have met Thursday’s deadline to submit sufficient valid signatures.
That means the only proposals voters will decide in November are two proposed by the Legislature and the recommendation of a special commission that lawmakers get a pay hike.
And that hasn’t happened in any election since 1978.
