[QUOTE="RyanN, post: 500720, member: 8451"] If you can, explain to me why we would want 60% of vote in order to change/amend ND Constitutional law. If the majority wants something, isn't that what should happen? To me, the issue isn't the majority. It's people that don't vote that hurts when those type of things are voted on. Simply put, the majority of ND is conservative, and if everyone voted, there would be no issue. Going to 60% is a slippery slope, especially if ND slips the other way as far as conservative/progressive. Doesn't 60% cut into democracy and the way it's supposed to work? I'm as open minded as they come, so let me know why I should vote yes...or no. [/QUOTE]
