Arizona Capitol Times: Three proposals to amend the Arizona Constitution will be heading to the 2010 ballot for voter consideration after gaining final approval from Republican lawmakers during a session dominated by the state’s financial crisis. This session, lawmakers filed just short of 60 proposed referendums covering a wide variety of issues, including property tax evaluations, state spending limits and giving the state Senate the power to confirm or deny the appointment of judges. Ultimately, only three measures - a proposal to ban affirmative action, another to ensure Arizonans the right to choose their own health care plans, and a proposal mandating the right to vote in secret on labor-union issues - endured the legislative process to a successful conclusion. All three measures passed floor votes in the House and Senate without the help of a single Democrat, while two of the three proposals stemmed from failed ballot initiative efforts in 2008.
