#Utah #utpol is also trying to pass a constitutional amendment to require 60% to pass voter propositions right now.
If it had been in place in 2018, there would've been no Medicaid expansion, no medical weed, and no independent redistricting commission.
Now, granted, the #utgop is continually fighting voters' choices on those 2018 propositions, but the props would have just failed if 60% was the requirement to pass.
Vote No on Amendment B, Utah. Vote no on A, too, to prevent them from sneaking in changes without notifying the public.
A GOP-backed measure in South Dakota would require constitutional amendments to receive 60 percent. Had this rule already been in place, all four amendments approved by voters since 2020 would have lost instead, including Medicaid expansion. https://boltsmag.org/measures-to-requ
