§ 23. INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM BALLOTS.
The ballots used when voting upon any measure proposed by initiative petition or referred by referendum petition shall state the title of the ordinance or resolution and shall also contain a statement in clear and concise language descriptive of the substance of such ordinance or resolution, and below such statements the two propositions, "For the Ordinance" (or Resolution, as the case may be), and "Against the Ordinance" (or Resolution, as the case may be). Immediately at the left of each proposition there shall be a space in which the voter may vote for or against the proposed measure. If a majority of the electors voting on any such measure shall vote in favor thereof, it shall thereupon become an ordinance or resolution of the City. The statement descriptive of the substance of the ordinance or resolution to be placed on the ballot shall be drawn by the Director of Law and by him furnished to the election authorities having charge of the printing of the ballots.
