Matter to be omitted or repealed shall be surrounded by brackets and new matter shall be indicated by underscoring or, where an electric magnetic tape typewriter or other electronic equipment or device is used, by capitalization or underscoring of all words in the manuscript bill and by underscoring, capitalization or italics in its printed form. Each resolution proposing an amendment to any provision of the Constitution shall also include the designation of such proposed amendment to be used on the voting tabulator ballots and absentee ballots in the event such amendment is approved by the General Assembly. Such designation shall be a question, commencing with the words “shall the Constitution of the state be amended to” and ending with a statement of the intended objective addressed by the amendment.
