question of calling a convention shall not have been submitted
to the voters of the State for a period of twenty years, then the
question shall be submitted at the next general election. A con-
vention shall be held within two years after a majority of those
voting on the question approve the calling of a convention or
within two years after the General Assembly calls a conven-
tion. Within sixty days after approval by the voters or within
sixty days after the General Assembly calls a convention, the gov-
ernor shall appoint a commission to prepare for the convention.
Not later than the second regular session following the approval,
the General Assembly shall prescribe by law the manner for elect-
ing delegates, for filling vacancies in the position of delegate, and
for assembling the convention, and shall appropriate sufficient
funds for the work of the convention. The convention shall adopt
its own rules of procedure. Any proposal recommended by the con-
vention for changing the Constitution shall be submitted to the
voters of the State for adoption, and shall be effective only if ap-
proved by the affirmative vote of a majority of those voting on the
proposal.
