The York State Bar Association has endorsed a "Yes" vote on the
Constitutional Convention. I understand the concerns of those who oppose
this: in a nutshell, there is a non-zero chance that parts of the State
Constitution that are good, and that we like, might be lost. I think
think that these fears are somewhat overblown. For one thing, whatever
proposals emerge from the Convention must be approved by referendum. For
another, the tendency of such conventions is to add rights, not take
them away. And finally, I believe that our present Constitution, written
in 1894, with the last major changes made in 1938, no longer does the
job it needs to do. I intend to run for a deligate's seat, so if that
comforts you let me know and I'll show up for your signature on my
petition
