In State vs Gonzalez, OPINION FILED: June 13, 2002, SHIRLEY S. ABRAHAMSON, CHIEF JUSTICE wrote:
Section 7.70(3)(h) provides in relevant part:
Whenever a constitutional amendment or other statewide
validating or ratifying referendum question which is
approved by the people does not expressly state the
date of effectiveness, it shall become effective at
the time the chairperson of the board or the
chairperson’s designee certifies that the amendment or
referendum question is approved.
Now Abrahamson says,”oh, never mind that.”
