§1What your vote means

Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.

A yes vote

A yes vote would require at least 60% approval, instead of a simple majority, for a citizen initiative voted on after November 1, 2026 that creates a new tax, widens or raises an existing tax, or makes a property tax rate fall less than it would under current law.2 Constitutional Amendment B, Impartial Analysis and Full Text

A no vote

A no vote would keep the current rule that a citizen initiative passes with a simple majority of those voting on it, except that an initiative on the taking of wildlife needs two-thirds approval.2 Constitutional Amendment B, Impartial Analysis, Current Constitutional Provision
