What You Need to Know About the Four Amendments on Georgia’s November Ballot

4 Amendments on November Ballot that Could Change Georgia Forever

Statewide Referendums on Georgia Ballot

4 Amendments on Georgia BallotThis November’s national election is not only one that could profoundly change our nation’s direction, but could also seriously change the way the State of Georgia operates. On the November ballot, in addition to national and state candidates, Georgian’s will have four amendments upon which to vote. If these amendments pass, they will change the Georgia Constitution and the way Georgia operates in regards to each of these ballot items.

Getting an amendment put in the constitution is much easier than getting it taken out. Therefore, changes to the Georgia Constitution should be carefully considered beforehand.

We have experienced that the State sometimes presents ballot language that sounds great at first glance, but because of limited space or other reasons, does not always tell you what you really need to know. If you are not sure how to vote, it is always wiser to vote NO.

Following is the ballot language of the four issues in which you will be asked to vote. We ask that you thoughtfully consider how each of these amendments will change the balance of power in state government and how that could affect your family and community.

1. Opportunity School District Amendment

BALLOT LANGUAGE:

Shall the Constitution of Georgia be amended to allow the state to intervene in chronically failing public schools in order to improve student performance?
