They were trying to change it by changing the amount of votes you need to amend. Please explain to me why the Republicans did this, if it was any reason other than the abortion issue.

This is yet another example of why the Republican Party is known as THE STUPID PARTY.

The intent behind Issue #1 was pretty good, but the STUPID PARTY never got their message out. They let ALL the outside money frame the issue. YES, the STUPID PARTY deserved to lose.

Dumbasses!!!!

That isn’t changing it, it’s making it more difficult to change it. The opposite of changing it. Yes the November abortion prop was the catalyst but l think it should take 60% to alter a state Constitution

The party line is that was for the betterment of the state, keeping out outside interests, trannies, homos, etc.

The timing says otherwise since they broke their own “no August special election” rule to have this August special election shortly after they saw the polling for the upcoming Abortion ballot initiative to be placed on the November ballot.
