Statewide ballot measures
Question 1: Eliminate Office of Register of Probate
YES: supports abolishing the Office of Register of Probate, an elected county office, and removing references to it from the state constitution. A 2011 restructuring of the courts already removed nearly all of its official duties. The amendment needs a two-thirds vote to pass.
NO: opposes this constitutional amendment, keeping the elected Register of Probate in the constitution as a largely ceremonial position. Voters kept it in 2022, when the same change won 62.9% of the vote but fell short of the two-thirds it needed.
