Ward Connerly looks to the 2004 election for his initiative.

Anti-affirmative action activist Ward Connerly's initiative to prevent state and local governments from collecting racial data will not make the November ballot, election officials said Wednesday.

The initiative, which Connerly says will lead to a "colorblind" society in California, likely will be on the 2004 presidential primary ballot instead.

Ward's website mentioned months ago that having this on the 2004 primary ballot was his target since that would give it a greater chance of passage.

Thanks for the ping.

Gives them enough time to drum up more support for it.

"Connerly said opponents have been misrepresenting the measure -- charging that it would hurt breast cancer research."
