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: method of amending the constitution; apportionment of the house; the judicial system, four year terms, method of selection of the lieutenant governor and appointed rather than electing, the treasurer, secretary of state and auditor; the voting age and residential requirements; and annual session of the legislature.[1]
