Non-binding anti-choice 'Personhood Amendment Ballot Initiative' on ballot in Georgia tomorrow.
But only in 45 of our 159 counties and only on the Republican ballot (except for one county where it is on both ballots).

They hope to use the poll results to convince legislators to place a proposal on the statewide 2011 ballot.

This is the question: Do you support an amendment to the Georgia state constitution so as to provide that the paramount right to life is vested in each human being from the earliest biological beginning until natural death?

It's on my county's ballot, but only Republicans get to vote. Nice.

1. The question is worded wrong. It should be - -
"Do you support an amendment to the Georgia state constitution so as to provide that the paramount right to control her own life is vested in each woman from adulthood until natural death?"

3. Personhood as pure chemistry.
Ignoring what makes a human person important and valuable.

4. More appropriate wording ...
Do you support allowing big government to crawl into a woman's body and take a look around??

5. Yup
But worse yet, occupy her reproductive system like a military. And while there are those tax payers who want to occupy a woman's body, they don't want to pay for the body.
