Referendum on Continuation of the Pennsylvania Potato Research Program
[36 Pa.B. 2550] Under the applicable provisions of 3 Pa.C.S. §§ 4501--4513 (relating to Agricultural Commodities Marketing Act), a review referendum was held from March 17 to March 31, 2006, to determine if the producers affected by the Pennsylvania Potato Research Program (program) wished to continue the program for an additional 5 years. To pass, a majority of eligible producers voting had to vote in favor of the program's continuation. An impartial Teller Committee met on April 12, 2006, to count the ballots. The following results were submitted by the Teller Committee: a total of 41 eligible votes were cast with 35 producers voting in favor of and six voting against the continuation of the program. An additional six ballots were invalid, because they were either incomplete or ineligible due to the acreage requirement. Votes favoring continuation of the program by number of producers represented 85.4% of eligible votes and votes against continuation of the program represented 14.6% of eligible votes. Because a majority of the votes were cast in favor of the program, the program shall continue for 5 years, effective immediately.
