    Default How are voters supposed to understand questions like this?

    Democracy doesn't work.

    https://broadandliberty.com/2021/05/...franchisement/

    may 14 2021 The four questions that will be on the upcoming May primary ballot here in Pennsylvania are among the hardest to read in the nation, according to an analysis by Ballotpedia.org that uses some of the most trusted readability indexes available.

    The wording used for the “title language,” which is the question voters will first encounter on the ballot, is particularly complicated — requiring a reading comprehension level that a PhD would have.

    Question 1 reads:

    Shall the Pennsylvania Constitution be amended to change existing law and increase the power of the General Assembly to unilaterally terminate or extend a disaster emergency declaration—and the powers of Commonwealth agencies to address the disaster regardless of its severity pursuant to that declaration—through passing a concurrent resolution by simple majority, thereby removing the existing check and balance of presenting a resolution to the Governor for approval or disapproval?

    When in doubt with stuff on a ballot, vote "NO!" You can rarely go wrong opposing your politicians.

    TDAK is incredulously partially right about one thing.
    Democracy doesn't work, at least for Republicans anymore.
    If their voter suppressions tactics don't work, they'll be going the way of the Whigs.

    Question 1 is also written with an agenda in mind.

    that's my default whenever I read "Shall the Pennsylvania Constitution be amended"......

    “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”

    If DEMOCRATS want a ballot initiative to pass, what makes you think voting against it will accomplish anything?

    I advocate for leaving it blank if you aren’t informed on the issues.

    It's not rocket science.

    Your state is asking you if you think the Governor or the State Congressional Body should have the power to claim or disclaim a state emergency and act on it.

    Your governor has the exclusive power currently.

    In other words, do you think your state should strip your governor of his exclusive power?

    OK, here is the real question- DO YOU WANT YOUR STATE TO BECOME A BANANA REPUBLIC?

    YES OR NO?
