“The measure would have raised the threshold to pass a constitutional amendment from a simple majority to 60 percent, as well as make it more complicated to get citizen-initiated ballot measures before voters in the first place.”

Leave it to republicans to try to make any democratic process more difficult smh

It would have basically made it impossible to even get measures in the ballot by requiring signatures in every single county and removing the signature curing period. Then it would require over 60% of voters to pass any measure that miraculously made it to a vote, a percentage which is pretty much impossible to achieve these days.
