Central New York Voters Will Give Their Input On Amendments To the State’s Constitution
Jenny Breen, associate professor in the College of Law, was interviewed by WAER for the story “CNY Voters To Weigh In On Voting, Election Proposals This November.”
Voters in Central New York will see new, state-wide ballot proposals while voting this year, asking voters to weigh in on amendments to the state’s constitution. Breen explains, “By throwing it all in there, they’re asking you to vote on a lot of things in one proposal. By removing those higher vote thresholds, it’s going to be easier for a single party to shove through the process. However, that is irrelevant right now because the democrats have supermajorities, and they could surpass even the higher threshold. But it’s really more something down the road.”
