Propose a change

Title 22 Elections

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.

What to do with it
As published

22-20-208. Convening of state ratifying convention; costs and expenses; certification of results.

(a) If the governor issues a proclamation calling a state ratifying convention, it is the duty of the secretary of state to convene the ratifying convention and make all necessary arrangements. (b) The costs incidental to the holding of the state ratifying convention shall be borne and paid by the state, as appropriated by the legislature. (c) It is the duty of the officers of the state ratifying convention to certify, under oath, to the secretary of state, the result of the vote cast at the ratifying convention on each question submitted thereto. When the result of the vote of the delegates to the state ratifying convention is certified to the secretary of state, it is then the duty of the secretary of state to certify the result to the president and secretary of state of the United States, and to the president of the senate and the speaker of the house of representatives of the congress of the United States.

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.
