State loves to change the law of the land

Wed, Jul 30 2008

The U.S. Constitution has 27 amendments. California’s has more than 500.

In the past 10 years, Californians have voted on 55 constitutional amendments, and four more are on the November ballot this year. With a state Constitution that can be changed at the ballot box by a simple majority vote, amending the document is often more a political question than a legal one.
