Proposition 128, the ballot initiative that would allow Arizonaโs Legislature to divert funds from voter-approved initiatives, failed with about 63% of votes tabulated denying the measure,ย according to unofficial election results from the Arizona Secretary of Stateโs office.
Proposition 128 would have allowed the Legislature to amend, supersede or divert funds from voter-approved initiatives if the Arizona or U.S. Supreme Court determines the measure is illegal or unconstitutional.
Currently, the Legislature cannot amend voter-approved initiatives unless the changes further the purpose of the measure and are passed with a 75% majority.
