I am apprehensive about changing the name when the margin in the naming referendum was so slim, and would not want polarization over that to impact the chances of the amendment writ large. If it would be possible to divide the question when the amendment is put before the people - so that one can reject the name change but still vote for the rest of the amendment - that would be great. I think the rest of the amendment is solid, and would not want the entire amendment rejected over the name change provision.

This version of the new constitution eliminates the name change by replacing all references to "Jefferson" with "The South", and by replacing all references to "Jeffersonian" with "Southern". Otherwise, the document is identical to the original: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Fxb0NhlS4CG9rzuU23G1fogpSsTW0eAP0vjanTSOPV0


I would be happy to put both versions (with the name change and without) before the population at the same time and have them pick one, or to put only the name-changed version before the population at this time, with the understanding that in the event the amendment fails, the version without the name change would then be expeditiously brought before the people. I await the views of the Speaker and Governor on how best to proceed.

I'm fine with the bill of rights. I still think the public should have separate votes on the name change and the rest of the amendment.

The question occurs on the Name of the Region. Please vote for 'Jefferson' or for 'The South'.

The South

Motion for a final vote.


If anyone notices anything, feel free to object, but if there's nothing left to say, it's time to move this forward.

I anticipate closing this vote at approximately 22:50 ET tonight. Anyone wishing to vote or change their vote must do so before that time.
