| | One might quarrel with this on the grounds that some voters might be unaware of the words' "precise and technical sense," but this is nonetheless the law; and in practice, given this rule, the debates surrounding the campaign should generally tend to inform the voters about the terms' legal significance. | | | Because an Indian tribe is not just an ethnic group but a political one, the Court has viewed "preference[s]" for "members of federally recognized tribes" as "political rather than racial in nature."71 This makes sense. | | | All it takes is a two-thirds vote in each house of the legislature--or signatures from eight percent of the voters--to put the proposal on the ballot, and then a majority of the votes at the next election to make it law. |
