Strange Question to Vote on

I was struck by something unusual we are asked to vote on:

"Shall the Nevada Constitution be amended to change the provision that prohibits an 'idiot or insane person' from voting to a person who has been 'medically adjudicated incompetent unless restored to legal capacity.' "
I am not much into PC, but this sounds good to me. The mental health profession does not use the term "idiot" or "moron" any longer.

Insert quip here about how most of the people running for office wouldn't be allowed to vote, since nine tenths of them seem to be insane idiots.
