One more question on the HST vote.

I read this,
Quote:
The Recall and Initiative Act says the measure needs the support of 50 percent of registered voters—everyone on the voters list, not just those who vote—plus a majority of registered voters in two-thirds of the province's 85 constituencies.
So say there are 1 million registered voters in BC (just throwing out a number)
So for the vote to pass 500,001 people must vote to get rid of the HST?

So if only 700,000 registered voters come out and vote and 400,000 of them vote to get rid of the HST, that still won't be enough to get rid of it?
