Why are state constitutions amended more frequently than the u.s. constitution?

Answered by maham237 @



It's much easier to do this because it just takes a regular vote by the people to change it and it is not as important as the federal constitution. The US constitution however is much much more difficult to amend because most of the states have to ratify it and that is extremely complicated.
