Voting for Amendment #2 On Ballot?
Are you voting for this Amendment to remove the word idiot, etc.? I'm not clear on all this Amendment would bring if passed. Would someone like to comment and bring a little light into the matter? Thanks....

Are idiots currently banned from voting?
No wonder turnout is usally low.

This did seem like a pretty stupid admendment huh? Actually there were two words, one was idiot and the other was insane I think. We just said, huh? We did vote for it, does that makes us idiots????

Hmmm. According to what I have in front of me, Amendment 2 is the one that says that the General Assembly will meet every year instead of every two years.
Amendment 1 is the one that gives the Legislature the authority to determine who can be a poll worker and removes the archaic 'idiot' language from the Constitution.
I'm going to have to read all of these very carefully before I go vote.

Be careful, I think on the ballot they were mixed up from the sample ballots.
