| Message | The Cannons would appreciate it if someone would double-check our math. We will not be advancing this amendment until after the next round of elections. Additionally, if any other party would like to see the number of seats in our legislature changed, the Cannons would entertain adding that proposal into this amendment. |

| Message | Our priority is to reschedule the elections to the weekend. If this passes first and then weekend election motions are unsuccessful the election will remain exactly where it is. I would rather get it to the weekend *then* fix it at 42 months. At 43 months the elections will eventually slip back to the weekend, if early election motions can't get it there first. |
