Question 3
The Virginia Revenue Stabilization
"Shall Section 8 of Article X of the Constitution of Virginia be amended to increase the permissible size of the Revenue Stabilization Fund (also known as the "rainy day fund") from 10 percent to 15 percent of the Commonwealth's average annual tax revenues derived from income and retail sales taxes for the preceding three fiscal years?"
This amendment appeared to be far more controversial to voters, and passed with a far smaller margin than the other two amendments.
