The 2007 Texas Constitutional Amendment Election took place 6 November 2007. Sixteen proposed amendments (propositions) appeared on the ballot — all of which were approved by the voters. About 1,088,137 voters statewide went to the polls, out of 12,587,501 registered voters in Texas.〔http://www.gainesvilleregister.com/homepage/local_story_311121053.html "7 percent of Cooke County voters cast ballots," Gainesville Daily Register, 7 November 2007 (retrieved 12:31 p.m. CST 7 November 2007)〕 ''Note: The following summaries are taken from a newspaper abridgement of a Texas Legislative Council summary booklet.〔http://www.gainesvilleregister.com/archivesearch/local_story_261144531.html Gainesville Daily Register (Gainesville, Texas), 18 September, 2007 (retrieved 16 October, 2007, 5:12 p.m.〕〔http://www.tlc.state.tx.us/pubsconamend/pubsconamend.html Texas Legislative Council 2008 Texas Constitutional Amendment Election Summary (retrieved 16 October, 2007, 5:13 p.m.)〕 Results are unofficial with 99.8 percent of all precincts reporting as of 7 November, 2007.〔http://204.65.107.84/nov07_133.htm Office of the Secretary of State 2007 Constitutional Amendment Election Election Night Returns (retrieved 7 November 2007 at 9:36 a.m.〕'' ==Proposition 1== Proposition 1 (H.J.R. No. 103) is the constitutional amendment providing for the continuation of the constitutional appropriation for facilities and other capital items at Angelo State University on a change in the governance of the university. The measure passed 66.28 percent in favor to 33.72 percent against. * Comments by those in support: The proposed amendment is needed to ensure that, as the governance of Angelo State University is transferred from one university system to another, previously allocated constitutional appropriations to the university will follow the transfer and remain available to Angelo State University and that future allocations of constitutional funding for the university will continue without interruption. * Comments by those in opposition: During the Regular Session of the 80th Legislature in 2007, arguments were presented opposing the transfer of Angelo State University from the Texas State University System to the Texas Tech University System as proposed by House Bill No. 3564, which passed and took effect September 1, 2007. However, those arguments were directed at the appropriateness of the transfer of the university itself, and no comments were made specifically opposing the clarification of Section 17, Article VII, Texas Constitution, made by the proposed constitutional amendment in the event the transfer took place. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Texas constitutional amendment election, 2007」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
