This gives me some much needed hope about our electorate.
I’m just happy it’s over, the discourse around this issue has been infuriating. In fact, it’s what made me decided not to attempt to continue using reddit after the 3rd party apps went away. I voted no and I’m happy it failed, but claiming it’s some kind of huge win for democracy is asinine. There is nothing less democratic about the system issue 1 would have put in place, democracies don’t need to be purely majority rule. But somehow we all found a way to take something as procedural as raising the requirement to pass an amendment 10% and requiring signatures from all counties (which I maintain would have hurt republicans more than democrats), and turn it into another life or death “most important issue in our lifetime”. I’m done with this crap.
