Dunlap is claiming that the People's Veto wording suspends a clarification, and that without that clarification, new law+old law=contradiction, so old law governs. WTF? IANAL, but doesn't new law govern in that case?
-
In other words, if the clarification is necessary for the new law to make sense, isn't it implied by the new law? I don't trust Dunlap to be acting in good faith here. The people chose IRV, they should get it.

This hinges on old text defining what it takes to be a "winner". Obviously, changing voting methods changes that, clarification or no!
