Excerpt from Amendments to the Constitution of North Carolina, 1776-1996: A List of Constitutions and Constitutional Amendments Submitted to the Qualified Voters of the State, With the Vote Cast on Each and the Statement of the Issue as It Appeared on the BallotThis is a catalogue of the amendments to the Constitution of North Carolina that have been submitted to the voters of the State since 1776, when our first Constitution was adopted. Amendments adopted by conventions without a vote of the people have been noted also, as have several amendment proposals which were approved by the General Assembly but which never reached the voters, due to legislative repeal or judicial invalidation of the act of submission.Each voting proposition has been treated here as one amendment, whether it involved only the change of a word or two or the revision of the entire Constitution.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
