  • Proposed constitutional amendments must be printed on plain white paper with no shading, highlighting, or distinct markings and shall include the official title of the section being added or amended.

  • A printed notice with the words "CONSTITUTION AMENDMENT" (instead of "CONSTITUTION BALLOT") shall be included with the ballot containing polling place designation, election date, and election authority signature.
