Iowa Constitutional Amendment
This amendment changes the language of a person who cannot legally vote
from "idiot or insane person" to "a person adjudged mentally
incompetent to vote."
Text of measure:
"Shall the following amendment to the Constitution be adopted?
Summary: Changes the language that describes a person who cannot
legally vote from "idiot or insane person" to "a person adjudged
mentally incompetent to vote."
Section 5 of Article II of the Constitution of the State of Iowa is
repealed and the following adopted in lieu thereof; Disqualified
persons. Sec. 5 A person adjudged mentally incompetent to vote or a
person convicted of any infamous crime shall not be entitled to the
privilege of an elector."
Voting yes on this measure would support replacing the text.

constitution
