RSA 40 Government of Town Meeting
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
40:4-d Declaration of Results.
If, in the case of a recount of votes, it shall appear that the result of the vote on the question was other than as declared by the moderator, the board of recount shall declare the result found by it and shall, after 5 days from such declaration, if no appeal is taken to the superior court, certify such declaration to the town clerk and said declaration shall be final, unless the result is changed upon appeal to the superior court. Source. 1979, 410:23, eff. July 1, 1979.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
