Voters are being asked to consider four amendments to the Louisiana Constitution in the Dec. 7 election.
Since voters ratified the Louisiana Constitution in 1974, they have been asked to decide 316 amendments, a number growing to 321 this year with the current list of proposals. That averages seven proposed amendments annually since the first round hit the ballot only a few years after the constitution took effect. So far, 216 changes have won approval from voters.
