Kung nais ng mayorya ng Rhode Islanders na magpatuloy sa isang kombensiyon, sinabi ni Marion na ang estado ay kailangang mag-set up ng isang espesyal na halalan upang pumili ng 75 delegado ng kombensiyon upang kumatawan sa bawat distrito ng House ng estado. &quot;Kung iyon ay gaganapin sa oras na ito - isang taon mula ngayon makikita natin ang halalan na iyon,&quot; sabi niya. &quot;Hindi kami makakakita ng isang convention hanggang sa bandang 2026.&quot;<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span data-contrast=\"none\">Upang basahin ang buong artikulo, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/rhodeislandcurrent.com\/2024\/06\/11\/constitutional-conventions-a-relic-of-old-or-a-chance-for-reform-its-time-for-voters-to-decide\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">i-click dito<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span>"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_work","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_work":{"heading":"Work","manually_curate":false,"work":null}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Constitutional Conventions: a relic of old or a chance for reform?
