Sincere question:
We seem to "rallying around the constitution" here. We are talking about the Calif. state constitution, not the US constitution. The US constitution can never be changed in this manner, so it makes senses that the rules would be different. If you believe that state-by-state voter referendums ("referenda"?) that change state constitutions should never be reviewed by the courts, how could the courts ever go about protecting minority rights?
