Just be sure that the VOLUNTEER CIRCULATOR line is red when printed out, per the instructions. Collect signatures and help give Nebraskans a better option in November.<\/p>\n<p>We have a budget if you&#8217;d like to get paid per signature for the number you collect, but that requires using a different &#8220;paid circulator&#8221;\u00a0petition, which we can provide if you are interested. Petitions are still county-specific, meaning that all signatures on one form must be residents of the same county. To become a paid circulator, get petitions, and get started in collecting signatures, contact Jen at\u00a0(309) 558-5806 right away.<\/p>\n<p>The deadline for submitting signatures is Aug. 1.
