"Incidental" sounds so trivializing. Tongue

Why regions hold individual voting booths on what are clearly federal matters is actually something I never really understood and seems not very expeditious.

Because it is a process of regional ratification. This is a federal system and thus by definition a federal system is a composite that incorporates the regions as a component in both its legislative and Constittuional Amendment process. Any amendment or alteration to the governing document is inherently a Regional matter, DemPGH. Therein lies the problem for you don't support regional ratification and thus would necessarily fail to see any purpose or reasonableness behind Governors administering what you would like to see as a single (rather low threshold) real federal referendum.

Sorry about that, got a little ahead of myself here.


Cincy, you may open a vote since there doesn't seem to be any interest in this in the way of amendments or further discussion.

This amendment lacks the required threshold to pass.  Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.

Absurd. This was the best compromise we had for fixing consistent inactivity issues that plague the opening of amendment booths. Way to screw the pooch again, guys.
