In Columbia two constitutional questions appear on the November 4 ballot in South Carolina. Voters will decide if nonprofit groups may conduct a limited number of legal charity raffles and whether the governor should appoint the adjutant general who leads the National Guard and state emergency services. The raffles question follows a 2013 lawmakers measure. A second measure shifts selection of the adjutant general from popular vote to gubernatorial appointment.
South Carolina voters face a ballot choice on raffles for nonprofits with a 100 dollar ticket cap and a 250000 prize limit per raffle. The measure allows up to four raffles annually for registered groups and exempts small noncash prizes under 500. Raffles would start in 2015 but lapse in 2020 without reauthorization. The article also notes a separate ballot item to allow governor appointees to adjutant general positions from 2019, with military training and National Guard service requirements for candidates.
