All eight were referred to voters by the Legislature. Propositions 141, 142 and 144 would amend the Arizona Constitution. Propositions 316 to 320 are laws (the ballot language says each amends the Arizona Revised Statutes). The Legislature's analysis list also names Propositions 143, 145 and 212; they are not in the Secretary of State's ballot language or publicity pamphlet, and this guide does not cover them.
