Kbu deserve this thoke. eoodSntonhons. Once upon a ttme, some of King George s roya! governors reaily pushed the colonists around. And you've been short-changed, ever since. After the Revolution, when state constitutions were being written, peopte remembered the crown's wrongs, and made sure that future governors coutdn't abuse the power of the office. So, in many states, a governor was barred from serving more than one term, in N.C., the Assembiy eiectedthe Governor, upfH! 1835. Then, you got the vote - and the one-term limit. It seemed like a good idea, at the time. Bothmet thong*. As our nation grew, and grew up, the rights of the voters and of the state iegislatures grew stronger. The task of running a state government grew more complicated. And the task of finding reaily weli-qualified people for the jdb of Governor grew more and moredifficutt. So thestot** thonged. beeingthattfie ] \ otd fears of a governor f gaining foo much ^ power were groundless under modern sysfems. more and more sfafes realized fhaf if only Ttade sense fo keep a ^ood governor on fhe matically fuming him out and having to start fresh with an unknown and unproven person 43 else. And so, state after state gave their voters this option: To reject or re-etect an experienced governor Alaska and Hawaii brought it with them to statehood, in 1966. Oklahoma changed, in 1968, Louisiana and Missouri. 1970; Florida and Pennsyivania. West Virginia in 1972. and just last year, our neighbors in Georgia passed their amendment. Today, the voters of 43 of the 50 United States have this important right. HorwSoarthantw. On Novemoer 8th. '.he voters of North Carolina can votethemsetves this right. On the batlot. Constitutional Amendment #3 empowers the voters to re-elect their Governors and Lieutenant Governors for a second term, if they choose to. A bipartisan effort. A majority of the N.C. General Assembiy voted to recommend this amendment. Leading Republicans, Democrats, and Independents support its passage. A!) of the past five former Governors: Luther H. Hodges, Terry Sanford. Dan K. Moore. Robert W. Scott, and James E. Hoishouser. Jr. endorse It. And a recent citizens committee on constitutionai reform urged this change be made. For better government. Our state suffers from the one-term timit Long-range problems iike water. energy, and new industries and jobs demand long-range solutions. From short-range governors. By the time our governors team the job. their term is hatf over. So they can't initiate and administer the kind of farsighted programs that our state needs. But even just the possibiiity of re-etectton woutd encourage and atiow stronger, more consist ^afteadership. Afaher share. The one-term limit shortchanges North Carolina in other ways. The people who run the federat programs and who participate in the regional conferences know full wel I that the N.C. governor is an automatic lame duck. So they pay iess attention to our needs. Squeaking wheels get the grease; but our governor isn't around long enough to estabiish the working reiationships or make the necessary contacts to have the kind of infiuence our state deserves And your fuM rights. But over and above ai t the logical, practical reasons for Amendment #3, the real key is that the one-term limit Is contrary to the democratic Drocess It HFOR " ....I Tlh-nt deprives you of a fundamental right. If the voters are capable of finding people good enough to be governor for four years, they are capable of deciding whether they want to re-elect them for four more To continue a good job And they are capable of deciding that the job wasn t good enough; so they can choose to reject them after four years. Either way. you should have the choice. And Amendment #3 gives it to you. November 8 vow for the rtght to retetf or re-etett. Vote [fw] Amendment 3.
