9. This constitution was short lived. A convention drafted & adopted (again w/ no popular ratification) an updated version in 1832 w/ the focus being on more devolution of power to the “common man.” Also, it established Jackson as the permanent capital.pic.twitter.com/HUqYy7w9Cq

10. This 1832 constitution approved the partisan election of all judges & prohibited property qualifications for office holding & voting. So, the “common man” was given more of a say in the matters of the state, well that’s the theory at least.pic.twitter.com/rw32HTkeiK

11. This constitution lasted until 1868, after the civil war, but Mississippi was not quick on making the necessary revisions. The provincial governor first called a convention to draft a new constitution in 1865. But Mississippi refused to ratify the reconstruction amendments.

12. Passions lessened, and a convention drafted a constitution in 1868, which was approved in 1869. This constitution abolished slavery, created a system of statewide public education & adopted a Baby Ninth Amendment! Sadly though they dropped their Baby Tenth Amendment.pic.twitter.com/0h0Qut2dDk

13. Typical of most southern states, the constitution adopted after the civil war didn’t last. It was only amended four times prior to its replacement in 1890. The past “elites” regained power, & the poor & wealthy whites drafted a new constitution.pic.twitter.com/lCritliieS

14. Under this constitution many qualifications for voting were created. There was a poll tax, a literacy test, a person could not have a “serious” criminal history, & voters had to be able to read & comprehend selected provisions of the constitution.

15. Most of these provisions have been rendered inoperative by federal civil rights law & Supreme Court precedent. The people of Mississippi have also repealed, through amendments, many of the more objectionable provisions & language.

16. But this 1890 constitution is the current constitution, and some policies that were adopted in the 1890’s with nefarious motives are still in place. One provision actually caused a stir during the last election:https://verdict.justia.com/2019/12/12/evaluating-the-lawsuit-attacking-mississippis-distinctive-method-of-picking-governors …
