A resolution advanced by the North Dakota House on Wednesday seeks to raise the voter-approval threshold for ballot measures that would amend the state constitution. But even if the state Senate supports the measure,

North Dakota will see no changes to primary voting procedures for now, after the Senate voted against a bill that would have changed primary ballots on Friday.

The chamber moved to increase the voter approval required to change the state constitution from a simple majority to 60%. Voters would need to approve the change in the 2026 general election.
