Secretary of State Chris Nelson announced today that the second of two possible constitutional amendment ballot questions generated by citizens' signatures is certified.  Secretary Nelson verified that this petition contains the 33,456 signatures required for ballot certification.  The petition proposes a constitutional amendment to the South Dakota Constitution to add a new section titled Judicial Accountability Initiative Law. The question will be included on the November 2006 general election ballot as Constitutional Amendment E.
