And I voted for a new Constitutional Convention here in Illinois. Apparently, we elect the representatives to the convention.
You are either braver or less risk-averse than I, sir!
Opening constitutions to change is, for me, serious business and not to be done lightly. It's dangerous enough to do when a single burning issue is to be discussed -- not that I think any opening would not invite other discussions, planned or not. It is truly risky to me to do so just because we haven't done it in a while.
But, I don't live there, anymore, so ... If you are elected as a rep, it will be fascinating to hear your tales. What an adventure!
