Regardless of this specific vote. Is it possible for a state law to limit a right as described explicitly in the constitution? Like can a state revoke any of the rights in the constitution. Isn’t that the definition of something being “unconstitutional?”

I guess I was asking a rhetorical question. Imagine a state vote on a woman’s right to vote… that’s settled. It’s a constitutional right.

Just like your fourth amendment rights.

I can absolutely imagine the current Supreme Court justices using the same reasoning to allow States the ability to choose if woman can vote.

They just allowed states to determine when to recognize and reinforce an inherent right.
