The Hawaii Minimum Representation for Basic Island Units, Amendment 3, also known as Amendment 3, was on the ballot in Hawaii on November 5, 1968, as a convention referred constitutional amendment. It was approved. The amendment proposed two additions to the constitution: Article III, Section 4, and one new section in Article XVI. The amendment would provide that any basic island unit initially allocated less than a minimum of two Senators and three Representatives be allocated the number necessary to attain such minimums, in which case each Senator and Representative would have a fractional vote; it would provide, as a transitional provision, for the augmentation of Kauai with one additional Senator to attain a minimum of two Senators with fractional votes; and for related changes.[1]
