Original sentence: However, because the proposition was an amendment to the Constitution of Arizona, the law now cannot be changed by the state legislature, and the possibility that the state judiciary might find a state constitutional guarantee of same-sex couples' right to marry is eliminated.Proposition 102 did not immediately change the lives of Arizonans — the definition of marriage set by the proposition was consistent with existing statute
Edited sentence: By placing a definition of marriage in the Constitution of Arizona, however, the definition of marriage could not be changed by either the state legislature or the state judiciary.Proposition 102 would not immediately change the lives of constituents—its definition is consistent with existing statute—and therefore would likely not have a noticeable effect if passed
