Right now we are debating amendments to make calling a con-con easier. We could simply lower the threshold, there is widespread support for that I would think at this point in the Senate. Our main concer is what could pass the regions. But if we have a determined desire and with so many leaders of all corners pushing for it, I think are chances are good at passing such an amendment.

The best way is probably to get a threshold everyone could agree on, both in the Senate and out. Is a majority vote of the Senate threshold something people would be willing to vote for in the regions?

Also keep in mind that just as the drive was ramping up, Adam was banned. Had he not been banned chances are this thing would have done much better over than same period. However, a lot of people deregistered, including people who may have signed this. I haven't spoken with him in a while about the matter, because my work schedule and when he has been on have not lined up very well recently.

Its five votes in two regions and two votes in one region. This was probably going to be a slow build up simply because there is so much disinterest. But it is not completely died off. Duke just signed earlier today and that was a big concession on his part as he was held back because of the bad history. Now that he is on board, the chances improve greatly.
