State Constitutional Convention - Question on Ballot - Passage by Majority of Votes Cast
What this bill does
Requiring the General Assembly to organize and hold a Convention to amend the State Constitution if a majority of the votes cast on the question of calling for a Convention, rather than a majority of voters voting at the election, are for the holding of a Convention; and prohibiting any changes or amendments to the State Constitution adopted by the Convention and submitted to the voters of the State from becoming effective unless the majority of votes cast on the question are in favor of the adoption.
