  1. CW: Occasional Foul Language. Always Political.

    Today's elections are in Nebraska and West Virginia. On the ballot in Nebraska is a constitutional amendment that would extend state legislative terms, and in WV a state ballot measure that would make it harder to vote. Go to your states voting website to see your voting rights and where to vote!

  13. So much for believing the government closest to the people governs best.

    Republican-led states are ramping up efforts to make citizen-led ballot initiatives harder to pass, with Missouri lawmakers approving a bill to raise the threshold for amending the state constitution—pending voter approval. This trend has accelerated, with at least seven states advancing similar legislation and 148 bills introduced in 15 states this year to weaken direct democracy, according to the Fairness Project. The push comes after progressive wins on abortion rights through ballot measures, which succeeded in 7 out of 10 states since 2022. Will new hurdles stop future reforms?

  15. So right now, in #Florida, I'd say we need to get a few #BallotMeasures in place in the next year so we can amend the #Constitution in 2026...

    - The Right to Amend the Constitution of Florida through Ballot Measures shall not be abridged.
