Helpfully, the IRS has a guide on taxation for churches (pdf), which says:


■ no substantial part of its activity may be attempting
to influence legislation,
■ the organization may not intervene in political
campaigns,
It's not a political campaign (those involve candidates, not ballot law questions) and it's not attempting to influence legislation (which is a bill before a legislature).
