Gov. Perry canvasses constitutional amendment election votes
Monday, September 29, 2003
By the Associated Press
AUSTIN (AP) - Gov. Rick Perry on Monday certified the results of the Sept. 13 constitutional
amendment election.
The governor is responsible for canvassing votes tabulated from any statewide election, outside races
for governor and lieutenant governor.
Among the 22 amendments on the ballot was Proposition 12, the tort reform amendment that caps
non-economic damages in civil cases.
"We passed into law the most sweeping tort reform measure in the nation," Perry said. "These
comprehensive reforms restore balance to our system of justice while maintaining proper protections
for Texans who are harmed."
