The Hawaii Revisions and Amendments to the Constitution, Amendment 22, also known as Amendment 22, 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 XV, Sections 2 and a new section. The amendment would provide that, unless provided by the legislature, future constitutional conventions would have the same powers and privileges as the convention of 1968; it would reduce the percentage of the total number registered voters who voted in the majority at a special election from 35 percent to 30 percent; and it would establish rules to resolve and avoid conflicting constitutional revisions and amendments submitted to and approved by the electorate.[1]
