Extract

Since this annual survey was inaugurated in 1927, it has been observed that activity in the amendment of constitutions is greater in even years than in odd years. Only eight states (California, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, South Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin) changed their fundamental law in 1927. In 1928, the number rose to eighteen (Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, and Virginia).
