Report: LGBT group files to Amend CA Constitution by Initiative Process to Overturn Prop 8

Scott Thomas

Report: On Friday, September 25, 2009, an LGBT organization filed paperwork with the California Attorney General's office to overturn Proposition 8 (Marriage Amendment) by presenting a new Amendment to the State Constitution for the people to vote on in the November 2010 election.

This may be good news for the personhood movement because not only will the pro-life voters be out in force but so will the pro-marriage voters. It won't hurt for an already energized electorate to have additional reasons to show up at the polls.

While some might say that the pro-abortion voters will be out in force as will the pro-homosexual "marriage" voters. While they are a vocal group, they are outnumbered and they do not have right on their side.

We have 400 days until Election Day 2010. We must "raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair. The rest is in the hands of God."

An interesting question from a FReeper to me:
 
To: EternalVigilance
 
...an LGBT organization filed paperwork with the California Attorney General's office to overturn Proposition 8 (Marriage Amendment) by presenting a new Amendment to the State Constitution for the people to vote on in the November 2010 election.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but since the CA Constitution already currently defines marriage as between a man and a woman, doesn't this attempt to change this comprise a constitutional "revision" requiring a much more stringent process of approval? Something like 2/3 approval by the Assembly? It seems to me that is can't go through the same channels of public approval as Prop 8 (which, by the way, merely affirmed prop 22.)
