The Journal Record (excerpt)
OKLAHOMA CITY – The woman who managed the Oklahoma City signature drive for the challenged Taxpayer Bill of Rights ballot proposal answered “yes” Friday when asked whether she brought in any people from out of state to circulate TABOR petitions.
Linda Howard, of Premier Ballot Access, said she was referring to circulator Russell Baggett, whose address was listed as Lawrenceville, Ga., on payment forms and other documents.
Howard said Marie Kuhn, who is in the restaurant business with Baggett, also came to Oklahoma and circulated petitions.
Kuhn’s own address was listed at Dacula, Ga., on some documents.
Baggett is from Oklahoma, she said.
Howard noted that some asked her to send IRS 1099s to the out-of-state address of a relative or friend. Howard said she had no idea whether the out-of-state addresses listed by other circulators were their own residences.
Under state law, petition circulators must be Oklahoma residents.
