Sec. 30. No person shall be elected more than two times to each office of the executive branch of
government: governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state or attorney general. Any person
appointed or elected to fill a vacancy in the office of governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of
state or attorney general for a period greater than one half of a term of such office, shall be
considered to have been elected to serve one time in that office for purposes of this section. This
limitation on the number of times a person shall be elected to office shall apply to terms of office
beginning on or after January 1, 1963.
This section shall be self-executing. Legislation may be enacted to facilitate operation of
this section, but no law shall limit or restrict the application of this section. If any part of this
section is held to be invalid or unconstitutional, the remaining parts of this section shall not be
affected but will remain in full force and effect.
[This amendment was part of a ballot initiative labeled Proposal B and passed by the voters at the
general election held November 3, 1992. It became effective December 19, 1992]
