Statewide ballot measures: what your vote means

For each measure: the official ballot title, what a YES vote and a NO vote would do, and what would change, in plain language from official sources. SaveYourState does not take positions on ballot measures.

3 statewide measures are on the ballot. Official sources checked October 21, 2026.

Amendment 1 · Legislatively referred constitutional amendment (House Resolution No. 1243, 2026)

Georgia Next Generation 9-1-1 Fund

A YES vote means:

The General Assembly could create the Georgia Next Generation 9-1-1 Fund and dedicate revenues from specified sources to it, to be used only for 9-1-1 systems.

A NO vote means:

The constitution would not change, and no dedicated 9-1-1 fund would be authorized.

What it would change, fiscal impact, and official sources

Amendment 2 · Legislatively referred constitutional amendment (House Resolution No. 32, 2025)

Acreage limit for conservation use property tax assessment

A single owner could have up to 4,000 acres of agricultural and timber land, instead of 2,000, taxed under the conservation use assessment.
