Once the required number of signatures have been gathered, the petitions are presented to each county's Registrar of Voters. The Registrar is responsible for checking the signatures.

Pay is commission only & by the signature, which varies from $.50 to $8.00. The price is determined by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to how many issues are in competition for the signature, how many signatures are needed, how much time is left for collection & how popular the issue is.
