A Yes vote means: The Alabama Constitution changes. If the lieutenant governor's office becomes vacant more than 60 days before the next general election for state offices, an election would fill it for the rest of the term. The Legislature could set the pay of the lieutenant governor and legislative officers by joint resolution. Legislators' travel spending would need approval by an officer elected by their chamber.
