The Vermont Statewide Referendum: Constitutional Convention Referenda, also known as Act 74 of 1969, was on the 1969 ballot in Vermont as a legislatively referred state statute. It was defeated. The referendum would have allowed for a constitutional convention to be convened to consider seven issues: the method of amending the constitution; the apportionment of the Legislature; the judicial system; the method of selection of the lieutenant governor; the method of selection of the treasurer, secretary of state and auditor (moving to appoint them rather than elect them); the voting age and residential requirements; and the annual session of the Legislature.[1]
