A Boulder measure that counters the idea that corporations and unions have the same First Amendment rights as individuals -- a concept referred to as "corporate personhood" -- scored an easy win Tuesday night.

Question 2H, which pushes for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would guarantee that only people are entitled to constitutional rights, won the vote by a nearly 3-to-1 margin. According to the final 12:55 a.m. tally, 18,392 voted in favor and 6,556 voted against.
