Referendum - Active Elections Amendment

[CityRP]

REFERENDUM​

---

Pursuant to the Constitution of Azalea Isles, once a constitutional amendment has passed Parliament and received the approval of the Crown, it must be ratified through referendum. In order to ratify any change to the Constitution, a referendum must be called in which approval from all electoral districts must be obtained. This necessitates a majority affirmation from each electoral district, or a supermajority if there is only one electoral district, for the proposed change to be ratified.

Azalea Isles currently consists of three districts, meaning that a majority of each district is required for this vote to pass. A YES vote means you want the amendment to become law. A NO vote means you do not support the amendment and wish for it to fail.
