    Opponents argued that the wording of the changes was poorly thought out — an argument that appeared to have gained traction in the final days of the campaign. Voters said they were confused by the questions and others said they feared changes would lead to unintended consequences.

    I wonder how many people rejected the wording vs how many want to keep the status quo.

      I voted yes on the family one and no on the care one.

      While I thought the wording for the family one was very poorly thought out, I felt it was important to change the current wording to reflect what we all see around non traditional families and consider them a family.

      The care one was an easy no for me. It stank of the state trying to wash it’s hands of the burden of care it currently has.

      Edit: news here is saying there was a decent protest vote on the family one. The care one got slapped down hard. Last figure I saw was around 75% but that was early.
