Forgive my foreigner ignorance, but what is a Constitution Convention and why would you not want one?

This one is more or less an attempt by the Governor to do a Scott Walker revocation of public employee pensions negotiated over the years in collective bargaining between the two parties.

It would be a gathering of representatives who would then be tasked with rewriting the state constitution of New York. I think I read that the last time something like this happened was 1957.

It's being opposed by groups from both sides of the aisle because it would leave a wide open hole for special interest groups to have a big hand in the redesign of the state constitution. Obviously, neither side wants that influence coming from the opposite side.

I'm against it because I'd rather stick with the evil I know. Sure, there are special interests in Albany, but they can only affect small change at any given time. With the ability to help reshape the entire state constitution, I worry what that would result in.

Basically this.

3 isn't hugely consequential but I have some ties in the Adirondacks that make it seem like a decent proposal. I won't be heartbroken if it doesn't pass.

Thank you, taxes are high enough can you imagine if they raided pensions and had to pay it back? We will be fucked. Anyway I don't have a pension but see the danger.

Update

Democrat Phil Murphy wins NJ Gov race to replace Fat boy Christie

Democrat Ralph Northram wins VA Gov race over Trump diehard Ed Gillespie

VA Legislature will probably flip blue

Trump response to the voters rebuking him and his nominees.

Tweeted from Korea

"Not my fault at all. Gillespie lost because he didn't embrace me and my positions"

Tillerson was more than right about Trump being "a FU*KING MORON
