168.485 Questions submitted to electors; form.
Sec. 485.
A question submitted to the electors of this state or the electors of a subdivision of this state must be worded so that a "yes" vote will be a vote in favor of the subject matter of the proposal or issue and a "no" vote will be a vote against the subject matter of the proposal or issue. The question must be worded so as to apprise the voters of the subject matter of the proposal or issue, but need not be legally precise. The question must be clearly written using words that have a common everyday meaning to the general public. The language used must not create prejudice for or against the issue or proposal.
