The intent of this site is to enlighten Marylanders of a rare event - the Constitutional Convention for the State of Maryland.

Every 20 years, a unique and specific question is included on the voters ballot.  This question should appear on the November 2, 2010 ballot.

This question is there to get "the sense of the People" in order to determine whether to hold such a Convention, or not.

If a majority of the voters vote YES on this question (which is indeed "the sense of the People"), then the legislature must proceed, at its next Session, to uphold the state constitution, specifically addressing this Article XIV, Section 2, and set in motion the means to create, support and follow through with the Convention, its processes and its results.

What is likely the most important part of all this, to the People, is that any presented legislation to change or amend the existing Constitution, which may be adopted by the Convention, will be put on the ballot for the People to vote upon.

Please be sure to study this Article XIV, Section 2 of our State Constitution. A link is provided below, but can also be found on our Links page.

 

It is believed this is the tool, and the only time (every 20 years), that the People can use to actually bring about effective change in our State Government.

-----------------

This site is the continuing result of a team effort to make sure that the People in the State of Maryland are informed of this 20 year cycle.

Expect more information to come in the near future.
