9/11 ballot question meets signature quota
Saturday, January 13, 2007

The Burlington 9/11 group gathering signatures for a ballot question asking whether a new investigation into the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon have met their quota.

Director of Elections Jo Lamarche said the group on Friday submitted the last of the 1,348 signatures of registered voters necessary to put the question before voters on Town Meeting Day.

The number is 5 percent of the 26,966 registered voters in the city. Lamarche said supporters of the question submitted a few more signatures than were required.

The question asks whether Vermont’s congressional delegation should be advised “to demand a new, thorough and truly independent forensic investigation” of the events of Sept. 11.
