I was rather surprised to find out that there are three proposed constitutional amendments on the ballot in Virginia this year, as I hadn't heard anything about them. They're pretty boring, though -- two involve exemptions to real estate tax, while the third deals with increasing the size of the state's rainy day fund.

26: Requires 2/3 majority of voters on some tax increases

WTF

Actually I think I conflated the two parts of the measure in that summary. It's more that it would require 2/3 of the legislature for some taxes currently designated as "fees," and would require voter approval for some local "fees."
