[LocalLeaguePresidents] LWVNYS: Statewide Ballot Proposals

[Maggie Moehringer]

Hello, everyone and I thought I'd give you more information on the statewide
ballot proposals, both constitutional amendments, which will be covered in
the Voter's Guide Part 2. Laura's earlier message gave you a couple of web
sites to look at for discussion of one of them. I've repeated those below,
and also attached two documents, one for each proposal. These were sent to
me by the NYS Board of Elections in DRAFT format, and are for your
information only; PLEASE DON'T DISTRIBUTE THEM until I receive the final
wording and explanatory text from the BoE. 

 

I can find no discernable opposition out there to the amendment concerning
the power line in the Adirondack Park; it's already built, and the
constitutional amendment is really just a formality. See the discussion at:

-line.html

%20not.pdf

 

The second amendment concerns allowing inmates of the NYS correctional
system being able to voluntarily work for not-for-profits outside of state
agencies. I haven't been able to find any discussion or opposition out there
yet.

 

Please feel free to email me or give me a call for any of your voter service
related questions. I hope you've received your Voter's Guide Part 1
shipment, and stay tuned for the Part 2 order form. 

Regards,

Maggie
