From the Orange County Register:
Patterson, though, is an active member of the referendum movement, causing critics

chairman of the Department of Political Science at UC Irvine. “She could well be fulfilling
a campaign (promise) by being involved in such a referendum effort,” Petracca said.
“Hardly unethical, indeed, we might even say admirable.”
