State and Political Processes

Locate your state’s constitution and examine the major elements and articles of the constitution.

Review its contents and functions. Search for information about the branches of government and the funding sources for your state government.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper that addresses the following:

• How are the main components of government set up by your state’s constitution?
• Which branch of your state government seems the most powerful, on paper? What evidence do you use for your choice?
• Does the state constitution contain a Bill of Rights? If so, what appears to be the most important feature?

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.
