five calendar days after the deadline for filing a revised statement with the Secretary of State.

Statement"; and

a proposed explanatory statement that in the judgment of the petitioner would be sufficient and

clear and that the petitioner desires the Supreme Court to certify to the Secretary of State in lieu

of the explanatory statement challenged by the petitioner.

(4) The answering memorandum shall set forth concisely the reasons why the

explanatory statement challenged is sufficient and clear or, alternatively, may suggest alterations

that would make the explanatory statement sufficient and clear. The answering memorandum is

due within seven calendar days after the petition is filed.
