The letter:

…This opinion letter provides an assessment of the legal effect of Amendment 3 on five statutes. Although the Secretary of State has note yet certfied the results of the election, the unofficial results show that Amendment 3 was adopted – just barely – by a margin of 3%. In contest where the “yes” side was able in effect to rewrite the ballot summary language, received tens of millions in funding from out of state, and outspent the “no” side 6 to 1, this tight margin suggests the result may be very different if a future constitutional amendment is put up for a vote…

3.21%.
Donald Trump won the popular vote – just barely – by a margin of 1.6%. Now what, Andrew?
Missouri courts effectively stated you were a moron. Rewrite that.
Out-of-state money? How convenient. Citizens United finally bites you all in the ass.
Outspent 6 to 1? Someone wanted it more, eh?
What a tool.
