The results are (finally) in!

First up, our referendum, on one constitutional amendment. On it, we had 35 valid votes.

On the We Actually love the Bill of Rights Amendment, 34.29% voted Aye. This falls short of the 2/3 majority required for constitutional amendments, so this amendment is rejected.

...maybe we actually hate the Bill of Rights.
