Resolution 5, introduced by Bergstrom, proposes a joint resolution to amend the Oklahoma Constitution by increasing the percentage of votes required for the passage of certain measures. Specifically, it seeks to change the requirement for both initiative or referendum petitions and constitutional amendments proposed by the Legislature from a simple majority to a minimum of 60% of the votes cast. The resolution outlines the necessary procedures for filing these amendments with the Secretary of State and stipulates that the proposed changes will be presented to the electorate for approval or rejection during the next general election.

The resolution also includes a ballot title that summarizes the proposed amendments, clarifying that the changes would affect the voting thresholds for initiatives, referendums, and legislative amendments. If approved by the voters, these amendments would ensure that a higher consensus is needed for significant changes to the state's laws and constitution, thereby potentially enhancing the stability and deliberation surrounding such measures. The resolution mandates that copies of the proposal and ballot title be filed with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General following its passage.
