the confetti did more than break the tension. It com-

6

pletely broke my train of thought because I did not announce

7

the final vote. I don't think I will ever forget those

8

numbers, but I will put them up again anyway.

9

There being 121 votes in the affirmative and 2

10

in the negative, the motion is carried. The entire Consti-

11

tution consisting of the Preamble, the 10 articles, the

12

Schedule of Transitional Provisions, and the Schedule of

13

Legislation is adopted on third and final reading.

14

The Chair recognizes Delegate Powers.

15

DELEGATE POWERS: Mr. President, Rule 53 requires

16

that a motion to adjourn the Convention sine die shall not

17

be voted upon until at least 48 hours after notice is given

18

to the delegates. Accordingly this will give notice that

19

at the conclusion of the session on Wednesday, January 10,

20

a motion to adjourn the Convention sine die will be made.

THE PRESIDENT: Are there any announcements?
