Sara Chaya Smith Cohen commented on your post in North Georgia Democrats. Sara Chaya Smith Cohen 11:36pm Oct 22 Iyt isn;t a tax - it is an amendment. SPLOT, LOST are not taxes. Only in GA> I voted already - and voted NO to all three amendments. No way to get things done. Comment History Richard White 10:25am Oct 22 Well put. Carole Lindsey 10:00am Oct 22 I voted No. Tom Colkett 9:50am Oct 22 My thought exactly Johnny. I've never seen a state that is so eager to govern by constitutional amendments.

Shall the Constitution of Georgia be amended to allow additional reckless driving penalties or fees to be added to the Brain and Spinal Injury Trust Fund to pay for care and rehabilitative services for Georgia citizens who have survived neurotrauma with head or spinal cord injuries?" All persons desiring to vote in favor of ratifying the proposed amendment shall vote "Yes." All persons desiring to vote against ratifying the proposed amendment shall vote "No." If such amendment shall be ratified as provided in said Paragraph of the Constitution, it shall become a part of the Constitution of this state. http://www.chelseyparkhealth.org/index.html Chelsey Park Health & Rehabilitation www.chelseyparkhealth.org Welcome to Chelsey Park Health & Rehabilitation.
