98.92% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.

0% "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

Occupational licensing has been a frequent target for our Bad Bill of the Week series, so it's not surprising that we didn't have to wait long into the 2013 General Assembly Session for a burdensome licensing bill to be filed in the General Assembly.
