referendumologist

noun. A proud colleague of the journalistologist.

Real citation: "During the mid-term elections, there were multiple referendums in place to push voter turn-out. One of the more popular ones had to do with, of course, gay marriage. Arizona became the first state to reject a ban on gay marriage. Referendumologist Jason Jones briefly explained what this meant... People are more worried about the GOP taking another term than the idea of two guys humping in their neighborhood."

Made-up citation: "The OED includes entries on the sciences of nothingology, dogology, and squalorology--but referendumologists continue to toil in obscurity like the heroes they are."
