"CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT AND BALLOT INITIATIVE REFORM AMENDMENT"

Arkansas Ballot Measure - HJR 1005 - Issue 2

Election: Nov. 8, 2022 (General)

Outcome: Failed

Categories:

Constitution

Summary


Currently, ballot measures in Arkansas require a simple majority (50%+1) vote for approval. This amendment would amend the state constitution to require a three-fifths 60% supermajority vote of approval from voters to adopt constitutional amendments (legislatively referred and citizen-initiated) and citizen-initiated state statutes. The supermajority requirement would not apply to veto referendums, which would continue to require a simple majority (50%+1) vote for approval.
