    So my limited understanding is that they have voted approve rewrite constitution but I havnt seen any news regarding the method, are they using half of current legislators and half of ones voted in? Being rewritten by delegates all elected now? What parties do these delegates belong to, what are the political leanings of said parties? Limited research turned up one actual party invested in the rewriting and one coalition dedicated to rewriting, would be amazing if a majority of newly elected delegates are.open to leftist government, as that would allow a modern constitutional interpretation of leftist principles.

          Oh right. Constitutional Convention won, by about 80%.

          As I understand, even if the alliences betwen parties to run delegates are not yet made, this could be beneficial to the left, since our current electoral system overrepresents the right (They got 38% of the vote but 46% of senators last time for example).

            That makes sense, hence my worries for a mixed convention as any hold outs from previous govt would probably be against major reforms. Thanks!!
