When it comes to the topic of an amendment being ratified by 3/4 of the states?

While it's a firm tradition now to have a strong separation of powers in the U.S., there's nothing in the Federal Constitution that requires it of the States. Indeed, at the time that the Constitution was adopted, there were states that had the executive be part of the upper legislative house and/or had their upper house possessing some judicial powers.
